Track Editor
« am: 12. April 2012, 16:19:47 »
Hello Everybody,

I am now working on drawing my layout on the Track Editor. I followed the advice to represent all different level on a simplified way. However I am still facing an issue as my train layout is made of three separate layouts all connected together through the main station and connected sometimes at different levels, which makes the drawing rather complex, for not saying impossible.

I was wondering if it is possible to draw three separate layouts in the Track Editor, the main station appearing in all of them (or should I draw the main station only once to avoid software problem). But then how should I connect layout 1 with layout 2 for example in the Track Editor, as some routes will go from 1 to 2.

All advices are welcome or any pdf file showing me how users with complex layout have solve such issue would be useful for me to understand and learn.

Many thanks for your support.

Olivier

I am wondering if I should organise my global layout by levels and represent each level separately, levels being connected to each other by the Jump-label editor. Many thanks for your advice.

Hello Olivier,

it's no problem for WDP if you repeat tracks or areas once or twice. If it makes it easier for you I don't know. May be your track plan is better organized but also think about the routes. If you make three parts of your track plan then you need jumpers to go from one part to the other.

One thing is very important: you can only have 1 track plan. So if you want to split your plan into parts all of these parts need to be in one track plan. You can put the parts there one beside the other.

Might be that the biggest help for you is to look at track plans of other users. These you can find in this forum in the section "Anwender-Gleisbilder". There are lots of examples.
Viele Grüße,
Stefan

Dear Stefan,

Thank you very much for your advices and suggestions, I did not know the existence within the forum of the section "Anwender-Gleisbilder", this is very usefull and gives me some good idea how users of WDP could represent simply their layout.

Best regards.

Olivier
