You can modify the how the program prints the train manifests and the amount of detail that the build report provides.
Manifest Options
Font
Monospaced
Sans Serif
The program supports two types of fonts for printing. Select the desired font.
Show Car
Length Shows the car length in your manifests and switch lists.
Load optional show whether the car is empty or loaded.
When a car is delivered to a siding the load state will change. You can also create your own loads but there are restrictions. Cars with loads other than empty or loaded can only be serviced by sidings with a.Schedule. It is strongly recommended that you not create your own loads until you become very familiar with how the program works. For many operators, showing whether the car is empty or loaded adds just enough realism to their operations.
Color Select if you want the car's color shown in your manifests and switch lists.
Destination If you want your manifest and switch lists to show the cars destination when picking it up. The program always provides the car's destination when dropping a car from the train.
Comments
For each car or engine in your roster, you can have an optional comment. Adds comment added to your manifest and switch lists,
Drop Text Color
You can select the text color of your manifest when the operation is to drop off a car.
Pickup Text Color
You can select the text color of your manifest when the operation is to pick up a car.
Build Report Options
Detail Level You can adjust the amount of information that the build report will show. Select one of the four levels. The program when generating the build reports stores the Very Detailed information to disk.
Minimal -- provides the least amount of information.
Normal -- setting shows which engines and cars are being excluded from the train, and which engines and cars are being picked up and dropped.
Detailed -- setting will generate quite a few pages depending on the size of your railroad. It will show all available cars and engines, and a bit how the program finds destinations for the cars and engines.
Very Detailed -- setting produces the most pages, and will show why cars are not picked up or dropped.
Be sure and press
after changing the build report selection.
You can adjust the amount of information that the build report will show. Select one of the four levels using the radio buttons. The program when generating the build reports stores the "Very Detailed" information to disk. The radio buttons control how much of that data is actually printed. The "Minimal" radio button provides the least amount of information and "Very Detailed" provides the most. If you're only interested why a train won't build, the "Minimal" setting can provide you with this information. The "Normal" setting shows which engines and cars are being excluded from the train, and which engines and cars are being picked up and dropped. The "Detailed" setting will generate quite a few pages depending on the size of your railroad. It will show all available cars and engines, and a bit how the program finds destinations for the cars and engines. The "Very Detailed" setting produces the most pages, and will show why cars are not picked up or dropped. Be sure and press after changing the build report selection.
