Not been on Exeter for a while so thought I would try out derbybest's new timetable. I have a problem with a sticking sticky down in the Taunton area when 1B64 arrives. The sticky flatly refused to move from Fairwater yard where I created it to Platform 2 at Taunton. I have tried a left click mouse a right click mouse and even shook it all about.....has anyone else encountered this before......Is there any known cure....... apart from exiting the sim and then restarting from a previous saved position which worked.

Can't recall ever having this problem however I have noticed sometimes if you try to create a sticky but don't enter anything then it sometimes it appears to get stuck there, however scrolling past the sticky (e.g: if the sticky was at Newton Abbot then just scroll towards Exeter St. Davids until you cannot see the sticky) or changing to another page ("VW" on paged simulations then the sticky should vanish. However it sounds to me like you actually entered something on the sticky.

UK Thanks for coming back to me.....yes I created the sticky as 1B64 with the departure time immediately underneath it..that's all and it always works and provides a good reminder for my aging cells. I don't know if that is how everyone else uses it. But I can assure you it flatly refused to move anywhere and I did try scrolling the page from one end to the other. I did have a saved copy from 15 minutes previous so it was no hardship to exit and restart....just bugged me when it happened. Geoff Log in to reply |

I had this problem on Gloucester. Created a sticky for a train waiting to come out of Gloucester Yard but was held up due to traffic on mainline. Once the train was dealt with I tried to remove the sticky but it seemed to have been applied with super-glue and remained in place for the duration of the timetable. (I didn't have the snapshot saves activated at this time.)

Hate to say this but it has just happened again at 01:55 with 2B99. I have brought up the add sticky drop down and created one which says on line 1 2B99 line 2 says 02:00 and it's stuck on Paignton Level Crossing North..... What do I do as I have just saved the session just in case it might help. Log in to reply |

Something's happened to me, two or three times, that may be related but certainly does seem connected to playing scrolly sims on large monitors (eg the one here is 1600x1200). Occasionally a sticky somehow gets moved right down towards the bottom of the screen, and then when I try clicking it nothing happens. I suspect this is when it has been scolled beyond the pixel dimensions the window was designed to be. I'm not 100% certain how it gets moved there, though I've an inkling it may be something to do with still having the 'focus' when I then make a rapid mouse move. Still haven't managed to pin the latter down exactly, though. Not a major issue, but I thought it worth mentioning here in case the above offers up any more clues. Log in to reply |
