<p>Hyun,</p><p> For the problem you are having there is an easier way to get what you want. On the menu bar click "Add" then "Turnout", I know you are not placing a turnout but just play along. Then a box comes up with a list of all the track pieces in your library. Scroll through and select the piece of track you want, say an 11" radius sectional track. You will see a picture of the piece of track you selected with a black box at one end of the track. That black box represents the end of the new piece of track that will connect to the existing piece of track. Click the end of the new track that you want to connect, the black box will move, and then place the piece of track. All done. To reverse it again, repeat the steps above. </p><p>To get to that selection box faster just press "Ctrl-t", it is the keyboard shortcut.</p><p> </p>
