Robin, Joe, I am duplicating the problem. It is something to do with the FLAT line style. It does not occur with fixed line style. Cadrail is drawing the line ...
Cadrail Version 9 was purchased for me by a friend early this month and I am going through the book step by step and I got to page 70. Using Styles and the 3d...
Is ti possible to create a 14 foot X 14 foot room. So all that you will see is that 14'X14' area on the screen.. PS: Tom told me about the change in Background...
Hi, I have been checking out several different RR Cad programs and have been quite frustrated with each one I have demoed. I saw a few videos on YouTube where...
Every CAD program has a learning curve. I have tried several. You can download a free demo version of CADRAIL from the website and there are tutorials in the...
Yes, create a new layer, create a line making it 4-1/2" wide, give it a unique color for walls, add doors and windows if you have time. Then you can turn it on...
It doesn't take months, but it will take some time and effort. There is a tutor that help, but the best thing is to jump in with both feet and start playing...
Ok, This is only used as an EXAMPLE of a video series on how to use a CAD program. In this case, it just happens to be CADRail. Evert has done many series on...
Steven, Now you know the trade off. If you work through the tutorials in Chapter 3 you will be half way there. There is no "easy" way to learn a real CAD...
Hi Tom, I truly understand what you and those who understand CAD are saying, BUT, I guess I am not getting my point across (won't be the 1st time). There are...
Frolin, I assume you have seen the samples on our web site? I am not sure why no one responded. However, it hits an interesting delema I wrestle with: what do...
Steven, I see and I understand and I know you are just having a discussion. Im listening. Well, here is my problem, you are 1 in 1000 or something. In version...
Bottom line: ALL CAD programs have learning curve before you can use them effectively. cadRail is no exception. You can probably draw your first layout more...
Hi, Tom: Is the version 6 tutorial still available? If so, would it serve as a decent starting point for someone wanting to learn version 9? Jerry Jankura So...
As a CAD user of many different cad systems (AutoCAD, TurboCAD, and CADRail), I can say that learning the tool (however that is accomplished) is well worth the...
Hey Guys. New at Cadrail and just started to design my N-Scale Track layout. I have a question, is there a way that I can make sure that the track spacing is...
Lay in the first curve, then use the Offset Object tool do the others. Same for the tangents. You can use spiral to join them if you like. From Track...
Thanks Robin, I would love to try what you suggested but however when I select the Edit Tools Icon and any of the buttons on the right the whole drawing gets...
Sounds like maybe you have created a figure? You might try using the "delete figure definition" button and see if the whole drawing is a "figure"? Monty ...
When using Runrail, is there a way for different cars, (and the engine), to be made different lengths, or must they all be the same? I'm using CadRail 8. ...
Friends, Evidently, my yahoo email account was hijacjked last night. Yahoo support sucks and there is no way to directly contact them for help. Do NOT open any...
Bruce, They are all the same. You can change the length of a car in the template drawing but they will still be spaced on the track by the length in the...
Tom, You don't need to know anything about operations. You can leave that to your users. But if Cadrail users could all load the same layout and "play" with it...
Al, What do you mean "leave that to your users?" What will they do? Make schedules to ship/load pickup/drop off? What would Runrail need to add "operations"...
