<p>This window is opened from the main PanelPro/DecoderPro® <strong>Tools</strong> menu, or
|
|
from its Operations menu; and alternatively from <strong>Location</strong> pane
|
|
<strong>Tools</strong> menu, <strong>Show Cars</strong> and various windows'
|
|
<strong>Operations</strong> menus.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Cars window allows you to view and edit your Car Roster or add a Car by entering a
|
|
Car's Number, Road, Type and Length. The program will automatically calculate the Car's
|
|
weight based on length and the scale you are modeling. Optionally the Car's Color, Build
|
|
date, Load and Owner can be added. You may want to switch a group of Cars as a unit, then you
|
|
may create a "Kernel". You can assign any number of Cars to a Kernel but the type of the
|
|
first Car assigned will be used by the program to determine if the Kernel is allowed at a
|
|
Location. The entire length of the Kernel is used to determine if the Cars in the Kernel will
|
|
fit at a Location.<br>
|
|
Note that the program also includes space for each Car's couplers when calculating the length
|
|
of a Kernel.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The complete Cars Roster is displayed:</p>

<h4>To the right of each Car entry</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="textbutton">Set</span> button opens the <strong><a href=
|
|
"Ops_Locations_setCars.shtml">Set Car Location</a></strong> window.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="textbutton">Edit</span> button opens the <a href=
|
|
"Ops_AddCars.shtml"><strong>Edit Car</strong></a> window, similar to the <strong>Add
|
|
Car</strong> window.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>Bottom of the panel</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>A series of radio buttons that allow you to select the sort order. Also the total number
|
|
of Cars is displayed.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="textbutton">Add</span> button opens the <strong><a href=
|
|
"Ops_AddCars.shtml">Add Car</a></strong> window and allows you to add a new Car to your
|
|
Roster.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="textbutton">Save</span> button saves the Car Roster to disk.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><span class="textbutton">Find</span> <input name="textfield" id=
|
|
"textfield" size="10" type="text"> Used to find a Car by its Road Number. The wild card "*"
|
|
(without quotes) may be used when entering a car number.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example, if you want to find all the Cars with a Number ending in ...345 , enter *345
|
|
and each time you press on <span class="textbutton">Find</span> , the
|
|
next Car with the ...345 ending will be displayed.</p>

<div style="margin:40px; padding:10px; background-color:#eee;">New in v3.6: More compact
|
|
Roster sorting
|
|
<p>Instead of 14 identical Radio buttons, a more compact grouping of sort buttons fills the
|
|
bottom of the pane. Clicking one of the buttons inside a grey rectangle hides the other items
|
|
in the group and sorts the Roster. Selecting "Color" would hide the "Load" column and vice
|
|
versa.</p>
