Hi Martin,

This is a bit pedantic but I note that Templot still uses "S2" as the description for 2mm finescale standards (and as far as I remember always did...) The 2mm scale association introduced the term "2FS" a few years back to denote its matched wheel and track standards
http://2mm.org.uk/standards.htm
... is it worth bringing Templot's terminology into line?

best regards
Graham Roberts

Hi Graham,

Thanks for the suggestion.

It's not as straightforward as it seems. If I change a gauge name, it causes problems when existing .box files are reloaded.

I have kept the S2 name, but added "2FS" to the description and to the menu item.

regards,

Martin.
