Hey guys... How do I get my track plan from xtrkcad onto here to share???

 

I suggest saving it into a bmp file and then upload it at for example photobucket.

To save it as a bitmap, File->Export to Bitmap.

Then use something like Irfanview to change it to a .jpg

Then post it to photbucket, or the like, and away you go.

Mike,

The bitmap file will be too big to upload. Open the bitmap file in Paint. Click "Save As" and select jpeg for the file type. That will compress the bitmap to an acceptable size. Upload the jpeg to Photobucket (you can't upload a bitmap, by the way) and once the jpeg is uploaded, look next to the photo you have uploaded. You will find 4 links. Pick the last link, open a post and either use Control V or right click and select Paste to attach your photo into the post you are creating.
