Tried Westbury, new run with no timetable. Using several frames but spent most time on Warminster sidings (not MoD). Works OK, but be careful if thinking things do not work as severa;l of these frames have inbuilt timers.

While I can't recreate the display issue on this PC (first chance I've had to get 5 minutes in front of it), I acknowledge there are a couple of issues with frames. I'm going to work on it tomorrow. Apologies for the inconvenience.

The GF window has its controls dynamically added at runtime, as opposed to nearly every other window in the Loader. The only one I can think of that adds dynamically is the Start New Simulation -> Select Options tab but that does not have any sliders. For those that are having display issues and have Three Bridges, does the Coulsdon North GF work okay? Bear in mind there is a 120s timeout after pressing the F before the release can be taken. There are no sliders on this GF. Also, just to be sure, are the F3 (Options) -> Failures sliders working? SimSig Boss Last edited: 19/04/2021 at 17:25 by GeoffM Reason: None given Log in to reply |

One for John - here is the York save. I have a snapshot, but not until 22.00 which was after the point the GF was required, we had restarted the session at 21.30 sim. Post has attachments.

I should add that, as I don't think it's been explicitly said, - GF tick boxes don't work for me either. Wonder if there's any other program/website that loads in the same way?

The latter is probably going to happen anyway if you can't release the frame - though as a dev, you can play with a test sim to prove that theory. SimSig Boss Log in to reply |

So my desktop PC had Windows 20H2 update installed and that was fine. My laptop was not on 20H2 and did exhibit the issue. Updating to the latest Windows update (twice) cured the issue - sliders now worked. I'd appreciate if anybody else with the slider issue could check they are on the latest Windows version and report back.

I'll try uninstalling and see what happens and take it from there - never uninstalled an update before so not exactly sure what will happen, hopefully straight forward.. Peter Edit - it's now asking me to restart again, so I'll try that first. I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs!

Same here – my Desktop is on Windows 1909, and after installing KB5001337, all the scrollbars have disappeared. Searching around, users of other programs have reported problems as well, e.g. here. Given that apparently support for 1909 is supposed to end next month anyway, I guess I'm indeed just going to update my Windows installation then… Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

It looks like Microsoft broke scrollbars in KB5001337 and fixed it with the 20H2 update. Other programs had the same issue and same solution as us SimSig Boss Log in to reply |

Just to confirm that after downloading and installing the Windows Update (20H2) my levers and scrollers are now working. Not had the time to do it until today as these updates take a fair while to do! Thanks to Geoff and John for looking into it.
