RailModeller Pro and Flexitrack curves

Post by BobDM »

I have been struggling to get RailModeller Pro to design me a layout with curves to achieve an oval.

It is possible if you keep changing the arc angle but this is a bit like trying to get the paint off the Forth Rail Bridge with a sandpaper block.

Is there anybody out there who has discovered an easy way to set your curves to the desired radius?

Cheers

Bob

Never having heard of this s/w I looked it up and it appears to be Mac based? If that is the case, a search for 'Mac user groups' may well be the quickest route to the information you seek. (Nothing to be found on RMweb, which has probably the largest online UK model railway community.) HTH.

Thanks Bigmet.

Yes it is Mac based, one of the few available from what I can make out.

The idea of searching for a Mac user group is a good one. Jan, the designer also has a forum which I had a look at but couldn't find anything. Probably worth another look and a post there too.

I really don't know what I would do without this forum!
