Good Afternoon Everyone

I have searching for an answer on how to print a single (or crossover) turnout on a single page or two pages.

When I opt to print an turnout it prints anything up to 4 pages depending where the turnout appears on the printing 'plan' and then have to be cut out and taped together.

Thank you.

Kind regards

Geoff

Hi Geoff,

Use the move page origin mouse action (SHIFT+CTRL+F10) to move the page outlines for a best fit:

2_100623_010000000.png2_100623_010000000.png

The page outlines are shown as purple dotted lines, and the page origin is shown as a purple square dot.

If you want to set the page origin to a known position (so that you can repeat it in future, or to align with the grid lines), click the blue dimensions shown on the mouse action panel in the usual way.

cheers,

Martin.

Many thanks Martin; your a genius.

I have just finished designing a 2mmFS layout in Templot and will start featuring the build shortly in Platform 1 which I think you are a member.

Thanks again.

Kind regards

Geoff

What I tend to do when wanting to print a couple of turnouts is to group them and duplicate group and move the duplicates on to a blank page/s and omit the print pages before and after the group, I then delete the group, unless I think I might need more copies. Make sure that you have the page outlines ticked on the trackpad.

Phil.

Many thanks Phil.

It sounds like a good idea and I will certainly give a go.

Thanks again.

Kind regards
