All;

 

      Is it possible to save  work, all ready done, onto a disc?  I'd like to restore my computer but would rather save the files first.   I have made some attempts on my own but without success. 

 

      If, after all, saving files to a disc can be done, please, reply to let me know how. 

 

      Thanks, ahead of time;

                                                 Lu

Hi Luis,

Welcome to Templot Club. :)

To save your work to a data file, click the main > save all templates... menu item.

If you have already done that, and you want to copy all your files to a CD or external disk drive --

In My Computer go to the C: drive and copy the entire \TEMPLOT_DEV\ folder to the CD.

In most CD burning software you can just drag that folder into the burner dialog.

If you need more help you need to explain a bit more about what you are trying to do. Which version of Windows are you using?

regards,

Martin.

Martin;

 

      Thank you much for your reply.  You had asked which Windows op system I use here and it would be Windows 7.  I did manage to copy all I wanted to, on to a disc.  As I am relatively new to '7', and I've restored it before, I saw something I didn't see before. 

 

      I did not do a complete restore.  Just the operating system and found that once I reinstalled Templot, all my drawing were right where they belonged.  The photos disappeared, and I can load those up again, but the all the track plan work stayed put. 

 

      The plans I've done, follow civil engineering practices.  I've read a few books on the subject, viewed many youtube vids, a lot from East Indian universities, real railroad track specs, cad design model layout programs and as much simple curve, easment curve, track cant and turnout arithmatic as I could find.  Google map screen shot and USGS maps are also used here.  So, yes, I didn't want to lose all that.

 

      Perhaps I could display some of this and start a bit of conversation.  I'd like that idea.

 

      And, thanks again;

Hi Luis,

Certainly -- that's what we are here for. :)

It would be very interesting to see what you are working on.

regards,

Martin.
