RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Trying to alter some of the settings in the above window (the one that pops up if you double click or right click a signal icon) this afternoon and all worked well initially. I popped back to the main screen to check that things were working as intended, but they were not, so I went back to the design window and now I can't get the full Signal Settings screen. I am missing the bit on the right where you put the instructions for other signals or points. Is this a known issue? R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Hi Roger,I assume you saved your layout in the design window before "popping back" to the main screen ? Perhaps if you could capture an image of the screen when this happens and post it as a picture here, someone may recognise the symptom.Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 Yes - good point Ray. R- /media/tinymce_upload/ef6ddfb7c2bd3d06d64dd66f95b62b81.PNG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 Yes, all saved before exiting design. I have now posted an image - have to await moderation. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 Incidentally, don't take any notice of the type of decoder specified in the image above - the signals are all virtual at the moment. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Ah - maybe the type of decoder determines how much of the configuration you can do. Try changing it to a Traintech decoder and see if it makes any difference.Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'll have a go - but I didn't change the decoder type. My laptop has just gone TU (on another machine now) so as soon as I can re-set that I'll try it. Thanks, Ray. Normal service will be resumed blah, blah .....

RB51 Posted February 12, 2016 Author Share Posted February 12, 2016 OK - did that, tried Train Tech Colour Light Signal and Train Tech PC2 4-port Decoder. Doesn't make any difference. Oddly, in the Train Tech Multi-aspect Signals plan it works perfectly? I think I'll whizz a support request off. R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St1ngr4y Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Is your ProPack still installed ok?Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 I have the 45° points available so I think Pro Pack is still installed. I tried deleting the track plan and renaming the .BAK but that brought back the same issues (probably obviously). As I said earlier the Train Tech sample design page still operated correctly so I tried inserting new signal icons in my track plan. These were fine, so I deleted the old signals. Luckily they were for practice and not incorporated into any program. No great loss, but I can imagine the grief if you had lots of signals. I think there was a Windows update in the background whilst I was trying all this. There was this issue and the design screen "flew" off the laptop display out of sight but was still active. This meant I couldn't close RM without forcing the laptop to power off. Maybe another reason to disable automatic updates? As I have deleted the signals my guess is there is little point in raising the matter with HRMS? R- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB51 Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Having another go at these signals this afternoon - and note that the "short" window is occasionally appearing as reported earlier. There was no Windows update this time and as I have the problem signals still on my track plan I have sent a help request to HRMS from within RM.

Tee1707818014 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Is it possible that the Windows update may of corrupted RM ? I would try to reinstall 1.64 to correct anything missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
