Hi there, I currently want to run a train to a different timetable. I know you can do it in F2 Train List, timetable option, then run to a different timetable. However I couldn't figure out how to open up the UI after opening the train list (Photo attached from SimSig website). I'm using an emulator called Whisky and could be different to how it is normally done on a Windows PC/Laptop.

On a Windows machine you right click on the train you want to bring up the menu for, so I would assume it would be the same in Whisky.

Tried right clicking it, nothing popped up.

Beyond that I am afraid there is not a great deal I can offer, other than to perhaps look at the support for the emulator software? Some users have had success running SimSig on Mac and Linux machines but this is not officially supported. More information can be found here.

Something else you can try is going to Options-> Display tab and ticking 'Legacy train list'. This will switch you to the old version of the train list, which might play better with your emulator than the HTML version- I believe it has worked for some other non-Windows users.

I can confirm that. Using SimSig on Linux several years ago, the right-click menu on the train list did not work and I had to use the legacy train list. I guess this isn't fixed/fixable!
