Hi Jon I am from Guildford in western Sydney........I am into oo gauge british steam..........no layout yet but the room is almost complete and the layout plan is ready.......see below..........Cheers Gormo

OK...........I have not tried to do that............thanks.........

Greetings All I have been tinkering with XTrkCad for some time now................designing and re-designing my layout and I have never been happy with the buildings that are available in the parameter files. I have come up with a method of doing my own and I have submitted one here as an attachment. The method is to create a new XTrkCad drawing for each building. I set the layout size in layout options to 12'' x 12''........that seems to be big enough at this stage , although I have only done a couple of small buildings.........it can always be set to whatever size you like. I then do my top elevation drawing , adding a reasonable amount of detail and colours and labelling. When the building is required for addition to my layout plan............I open the building file..........go to edit........click on "select all"...........everything goes red, or highlighted if you prefer.............I then right click and select "copy"..............all done.............close the building file...............then open your layout file ..............right click and select "paste"...............your building will appear highlighted on your layout file............right click and select "move" to move the building to it`s chosen site.........right click again and select "rotate" to position it correctly..............your done !!!!!...............plus by right clicking and selecting "paste" again, the same building will continue to insert itself into the layout file..........very handy for houses etc. If you wish to try my goods shed...........just download the attached file............Cheers.............Gormo

Hi All I am now trying my hand at a Blog.....we`ll see how she goes....????
