Printing the PDF Manual is a tedious affair. The page number or numbers that you select in the print dialog box do not agree with the pages that are printed....

Hi, Folks: After a false start caused by my not being careful enough when laying track, I'm ready to start anew. When I have a grade that uses several...
Jerry, I used Cadrail to design my 16' x 24' Nscale layout. It has a 1.8% grade. I used a temporary "Divide at Point" along with turning on "elevations and...
Jerry, I may be misunderstanding your question but if you have a constant grade from begining to end then you should be able to determine that very quickly. As...
Jerry, I suggest you make a figure, adding all of the elements in the order they are connected. Then use the Object Editor tool on the figure. Click on the ...
Hi Jerry, I also just calculate the intermediate stations but you should smooth out the start and end of the grade. Think of it as an easement in the vertical ...
... Makes a lot of sense, especially since you can't bend the track to a nice tight angle like you can cut a piece of wood or foam. In terms of size, this is a...
Super Duper Jerry, I learned the lesson in N scale in the days when N scale products weren't as good as they are now. The real beauty of CadRail is that you...
I have built a library of standard lumber sizes (1x4, 2x4, sheey, etc.) using Shape Builder. The problem I see is that when loaded into the Library Tab, all...
Hi, I am using the HO Fast Tracks track library for turnouts, etc. However, when I bring a figure in from that library, it "lands" in the Notes Layer instead...
Kennedy, Use the CHANGE PROPERTIES TO CURRENT button on the Library tab. And to change an object to the current layer use the CHANGE PROPERTIES tool on the ...
Tom, Thanks. It worked like a charm! It was a good lesson. I was trying to change the properties of the figure (e.g., #6 turnout, or double crossover, etc.)...
It is not possible to save drawings to a previous version as far as I know because I have tried. Perhaps your friend could download the CadRail 9 demo...
Is there a possibility of exporting it to a DXF file and importing the DXF into CadRail 8? I've never tried it, but it might work. Bill ... From: Bruce...
... I was just about to suggest doing this, as both V8 & V9 process DXF. However, there is one "gotcha:" I don't know how DXF would handle turnouts and other...
Hi guys, the answer to this one is probably simple but I just cant crack it. I have created a turntable and roundhouse(based on Walhers n scale 130') and made...
... I just tested this approach and it worked. Create an end point at the center of the table or whatever pivot point you want. I did this by drawing a...
... Or, you could draw a single perpendicular line from the "endpoint" of the circle with a length equal to the radius. That should get you the center. -- ...
Hi, It's been a very very long time since I was last on this list; but my Cadrail 9.08g is still in use here in Orlando. Yesterday after a 5+ hours Cadrail...

Try changing the offending lines to a scalable flat line. Start with .01" and work up or down from there. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
... Ted, Thanks for the suggestion. Because the base of my layout design in Cadrail goes back to Version 6 I have never made much use of the newer scalable...
I've never tried to print grid lines. Try creating a new layer and drawing your own grid. It should go real fast using the object offset tool. That way you...
