<p>[quote user="SpaceMouse"]Don't use the curved track function for this operation. Place a piece of straight track where you want the the curve to end up. Then use the "Join Two Tracks" fucntion to connect from your track to the straight piece. If you don't want the straight track you can delete it and the curve will be place where you want it. [/quote]</p><p>Thank you for the reply. However, I'm a bit puzzled by your reply (while at the same time fully admitting that this may be due to my unfamiliarity with XtrkCAD). I tried what you said, and it created one long curved track. This might be fine if I'm using flex-track, but I'm not, I actually have 11" curve sections I want to use. </p><p>Also, using your method, how do you make the single long curved section as a predetermined curve or radius?</p><p>Again, if my confusion is from my lack of experience with XtrkCAD, I apologize, and hope someone will explain the nuance to me. </p>
