xTrakCad help please...
Posted by WaxonWaxov on Friday, August 15, 2008 8:20 PM

Hello

Trying to figure xTrakCad out but it is not intuitive at all.

Can someone please point me towards a good 'manual' for it?

also, has anyone had any luck with trying to create your own turnouts with it? I am trying to 'design' FastTracks in it, but they are coming out all jacked-up.

 

thanks

If you haven't taken the time to run the built-in tutorial, I would strongly suggest that you invest the time in doing so. It will help you to understand how to use the program to your benefit.

Regarding designing the Fasttracks turnouts in the program...if you don't have all of the dimensions of one of the actual turnouts, it will be almost impossible to design one in the program.
