TimeTable Editing Problem 12/02/2011 at 15:37 #2413

I hope someone can help me, I've already asked but nobody answered.
I have a problem with the timetable editor, I can't create or modify any timetable of any simulation, both on the home PC, which has Vista, and on the Portable, which as XP. When I try, openin the editor, it won't let me insert any location, I only manage to duplicate an existing train. Who as a clue of the problem?

The problem it's there, the window with the new location won't close unless I press cancel, so I can't modify anything.

If you are not getting a validation warning then I can't think what the problem is.

Is it a valid pat? If not you may be getting a validation warning popping up behind SimSig. Exactly what are you trying to do and with which TT?

No popups or validation warning, it just won't let me insert anything, a simple location, nothing. The problem is with all Sims and all TTs.

Can you be more specific than "it won't let me"? For example, are the relevant buttons greyed out so you can't click them, or you click them and nothing happens, or you enter data, hit Ok and then nothing happens, or you get an error - or what?

After i've done

Edit >
Location List tab >
Add above/below >

I enter data, i can click ok (no greyed buttons) but the window won't change or close and the location won't be inserted, no messages appers (about errors or else) and nothing happens unless i press Cancel (even clicking on the X on the top won't close the window).

Are you clicking OK or next?
I cannot replicate anything to this effect with any sims, perhaps if you can give us a particular instance of a timetable & train in a specific sim, then it might help pin a problem down as opposed to generalising.

Can you choose the location from the dropdownlist? And can you choose platform, path and line codes?

I can choose everything, insert locations, times, plat, lines, activities, but it won't save it because when I click OK or Next/Insert, it just won't do nothing, I can only close the window by pressing cancel.

Could you upload a screenshot of the problem? Just an idea to try to help solve your difficulties.

I would hazzard a guess at an issue with the permissions on the folder you have your sim/tt in.

I thought it could be that Noisynoel and had already checked, but still no solution. The strange thing I noticed, even if the files inside the folder have the mark "only read" unchecked, I can't uncheck it on the folder properties, as when I try to do so, when I open the properties window again, the "only read" option is checked again! I'm gonna istall Windows 7 in the next days, I hope maybe it will resolve...

I can post a screen if you want, but you will only see the location editing window on top as normal. Anyway.... here it is.

Just to let you know, the problem as disappeared after the complete installation Windows 7. I tried before only updating Vista, but the problem didn't solve.
