Hi,

I don't seem able to restore timbers as I used to be. If you select no timbering and then later use shift/F10 and click on the green bar to restore timbers, it doesn't and the option to restore timbers is greyed out. Is there some new way to do this or is it a bug?

Hi Stephen,

I can't reproduce this. It is all working ok for me.

Where did you select "no timbering"? Which version of Templot?

Can you post the .box file?

regards,

Martin.

Hi,
Latest version.

Real>>>>No timbering

Template Number 20 DL0021 is the one. I did have a way round it as I had already saved it with timbering.

Hi Stephen,

You have however found a different bug, so many thanks for that. :thumb:

Restoring timbers via that "invalid request" dialog always sets the equalized-incremental (skewed) timbering style, regardless of the previous style in force when you turned the timbering off. I will get that fixed.

Note that the proper way to turn the timbering off is via this menu:
 
2_060610_100000000.png2_060610_100000000.png

And the proper way to turn it back on is to select the desired timbering style on the same menu.

A bullet point on a menu item means that it is one of a multiple choice group of items -- to deselect the selected item you must click one of the other items.

Whereas a tick mark on a menu item means that it is an on-off toggle, and to deselect it you must click it again.

This is all basic Windows functionality from the year dot, but surprisingly I have had to explain it a few times recently.

regards,

Martin.

Hi Stephen,

Posts crossed. Thanks for the file.

I can now reproduce the bug -- it's a half-diamond template.

Click real > timbering > half-diamond timbering to turn the timbers back on.

I will get this bug fixed. Thanks for reporting it. :)

regards,

Martin.
