<h1>Edit Layout Slip</h1>
|
|
A Slip is a special piece of track that represents two tracks crossing at grade, with the
|
|
ability to switch between the tracks. It can come in two forms as a Single or a Double Slip.
|
|
The slip has four connection points, and two tracks, designated 1 and 2. When a level
|
|
crossing is created, track 1 is the horizontal track, and track 2 is the inclined track. The
|
|
angle between the two tracks, the incline of each track, and the length of each track may be
|
|
varied by dragging connection points with the meta key pressed. The center of the level
|
|
crossing may be positioned by dragging the center circle with the meta key pressed (see the
|
|
help bar for which key is the meta key for your operating system).
|
|
<p>Although the slip is made up of two tracks it is treated as a single block and can be
|
|
either a <em>mainline track</em> or <em>side track</em> depending on the mainline track or
|
|
side track designation of track segment connected to each track. If a block name is entered
|
|
in the <strong>Block: Name</strong> field of the tool bar prior to creating a slip, that
|
|
block is assigned to the slip.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The edit Slip window, allows you to configure the output states for the two turnouts that
|
|
drive the slip and test these prior to confirming the configuration.</p>
