Rick Thank you for the additional input. Hopefully my XP program disk I got with this computer will allow me to use it on the Mac. Jim ... won't work. ... ...
Group Members. I have not been able to find a satisfactory technique for adding a fascia around the Terrain layer/mesh. I have checked the settings in the mesh...
Jim, Each mesh has a check box for the fascia in its properties dialog. That should produce panels on all sides with a uniform lower elevation. I don't know...
Ken, Thank you. I do not know why it is not working for me either. I have the box "show fascia" checked. I only get strips of the fascia, like vertical...
Jim, Is it possible that there is some other surface near the fascia? 3pi has an adjustment for the nearest and furthest objects it will display. That...
Ken, I appreciate the tutorial regarding polygons. It is very helpful and now understand the process. Thank you. I still cannot get the automatic Fascis to...
I hadn't gone to the site (my bad) and thought it was just a photo gallery site from the email. Since the original poster mentioned model train collections, I...
Was this a new file created with v8 or an old v7 file?? Could be an issue with reading an old mesh. A new mesh created in v8 displays the fascia properly on...
In version 8.oo.47 Ihave started s small learning setup. Have gotten to Layers for track, buildings and landscape o.k. The 0bjects show up in 2d and 3d, but in...
Ken, You are kind to honor my request. Problem? I do not know your Email Address and it is not disclosed on this list so far as I know. ... and ... Given your...
Dear Danny, I will it to Ken, as suggested in the last Email-I will take all the help I can get and will send it to you as well. Thank you. I do not know how...
Got to Action menu, then Modify Layers. Highlight the rolling stock layer in the list of layers. Then click the button at top of screen with the UP arrow in...
Hi people, I think I have a new question here... I was dealing with meshes in my layout, after have been 1 year away from it. I noticed that when one changes...
Hi, My name is Gerry and while I have used and registered every version of 3rdPlanIt from the start, I am new to the group. Just wanted to say "hi". Gerry ...
I've been attempting to construct a No. 7 turnout (HO scale) and add it to the library (I'm using the latest version of the software) without much success. I...
Hi Michael, ... You can modify an existing turnout to your dimensions and it will work just like the original library turnouts. You can then save the modified...
Hi Mike, ... Thanks for the encouragement and the offer of help. I'm definitely considering it again/still. When I look at the idea of a single, huge book, it...
Thanks for all the responses. The geometry and parameters for the turnout is easy for me, being a civil engineer, but how to use the software wasn't. I'll try...

I recently imported a DWG file from a CAD program of the room my layout will be in. When I imported the file, most of the walls, stairs, windows and such were...
Hi Dennis, ... The Object Data Window shows the layer for each object. That display is a pulldown list that lets you change the layer for each object there. ...
This is off-topic, being about prototype info, but you may find it interesting anyway. A friend I used to work with at Adobe, Brad Harrison, has just completed...
