Right having converted the track plan .pdf images to .jpeg images using Nitropdf I saved the two plans.

I have the same problem whether I import a background picture .jpeg or a a background image .bgs.

I open the background track plan in Templot inserting it into the track pad. I then moved it to X=0 and Y=0 using shift to in background images, then rescaled using autofit (1:850).

All fine so far. Having built the track plan on top of the image I saved it to the storage box. I  then tried reloading the image to the track pad. Having successfully reloaded the track plan I then tried positioning the track layout on top of the original track plan using Shift Control F7.

The original track plan moved sideways away from the track overlay. 

The side ways move happened for  both the .jpeg and .bgs back ground images?

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Gordon,

I didn't quite follow that. Using SHIFT+CTRL+F7 (or the BACKSLASH key) to shift a group of templates, if you have some picture shapes present, you should see this:

Choose yes or no accordingly. If yes, they will shift into sync with the templates when you finish the mouse action.

It's a good idea to save your background shapes first (BGS file) in case the result is not quite what you wanted.

If I'm missing something, please ask again.

cheers,

Martin.

Thank you Martin.

I was clicking on "Yes."
By clicking on "No", I just moved the track templates with the background remaining in place.
All sorted.

Many thanks.

Hi Gordon,

Sorry it wasn't clear. I have now modified the wording for next time:
