Is there a way to set default or preset values for MS and TS double track spacing? I'm getting into a bit of a pickle because they seem to revert to values I don't want :)

Hi Andy,

There are two approaches to this.

1. the default settings for adjacent track centres are part of the gauge/scale settings. You can create a custom setting with your required settings:

There are 4 custom slots located at the bottom of the list, so you can have 4 different settings in them if needed.



2. the track centre spacings are template-specific. So an easy way to retain some settings for future use is to store a template containing them. Then copy it into the control template when you need them. The same applies to most other settings in Templot.

That's what library templates are intended for (program > store as library template menu item). They show in green in the storage box:

As for other unused (wiped) templates, they don't appear as background templates in the track plan.

cheers,

Martin.
