Re: Title Bar of Preferences window is off screen. How do I move the window?
#preferences
Ron,
What happens if you maximize the TigerVNC window _before_ opening
the preferences window?
Also, try <ALT+space> to get the window menu to resize the
window.
This page might add some clue:

I tried both editing the line and deleting the line as Peter
suggested, but this made no difference. I have uploaded a couple
of screen shots to the Photos section (Preferences Title bar off
screen - RPi) and also the user-interface.xml files (in the
files section - same title). I even tried moving the RPi taskbar
from the top to the bottom. that also didn't help, it just put
the Preferences screen to the very top, still without a Title
bar. This is not the end of the world, just annoying, and
reinforces my inherent dislike for all things Linux.

I have rebuilt a new Panel Pro layout/profile importing from Anyrail.? Its a copy of a existing layout/profile with an additional siding and two turnouts.
?
In testing the new layout/profile and my sensors, I discovered that if I have an active block with a block value before a turnout, then when I set the next blocks active attached to the turnout (both thrown and closed paths), both blocks show the block value, even though the path to one of the blocks is invalid (can't get there thru the turnou).
?
This doesn't happen on my old layout/profile.? I just double checked.
?
I made sure to build the routes thru the Signal Mast Logic tools.
I also deleted the paths and reloaded the layout/profile.
?
Still the problem occurs.? The only thing different (that I know of)? is that I used the script AddOccupancyIconsToPanel.py for the newer layout.?
In the following diagram I set West Mainline active first with a block value manually.? Then I set both the other blocks active, but only West Yard Mainline should have the block value.
?
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.?

John B,
Here is the suggestion. You create virtual signals at first. Give them
meaningful user names. Build the logic for them. Later when you get
real hardware, you 'move' (it's a right click option) the user name to
the real hardware. You also replace the signal on the panel with the
username (if you didn't from the start) and it will follow the
hardware for your display of the signals. That way you never lose the
logic, it is tied to the user name.

What he means is, set the cab address of the USB interface to 10.

And your USB interface isn't assigned to COM3, it clearly shows COM10 in the image you posted!

Re: Signal heads/ masts
Ken,
I am creating SSLs and now I understand how they work. All of the signals were created as virtual heads so I could place them on the LE panel and populate the Simple Signal Logic. Now that I am ready to add physical signals I believe I will need to re-create all of the logic again, this time as NH$xxx heads? If they both display aspects on the LE panel and have the same logic dialog box, what is the purpose to create virtual logic at all? Or am I missing something again.?
I know when I graduate to SML all bets are off, changes will need to be made.? ?

John B,
The bulk of the signal mast logic systems have aspects that refer to
the turnout as part of the aspect. Generally labeled diverging and
usually another word of two like diverging approach or diverging slow.
Physically using a dwarf combined with a high mast is not something in
most if not any of the systems. Can you roll your own, yes. But that's
a lot more work. Also that high and dwarf combo would not be something
immediately understood by most operators.
Generally the rule systems expect that you have a mast with one or
more heads to display the appearance of the aspects. Never on two
different physical devices. But maybe somebody can provide a prototype
example.

It might be that you need to use "Request update of sensor"
instead of "Request update of all sensors".

Phil, sadly no joy for me on that LogixNX sensor polling

execution it, it still fails to give me block occupancy
visibility on the panel. I guess my lr101 and/or lb101s just
dont wake up from it calling for the report. I have a little BLI

all is well, so not a huge time saver, but was bummed this
didn't work for me. I did get the route to clear the turnouts on
startup, so that was a win.

I dont think its that simple.
The routines mentioned act on a transit to get the next section.
The allocate extra can allocate 1 section further, but auto trains cannot always use it and it doesnt always set the switchs.. Its designed for manual driving of the train and is limited to adding only one additional section.
The bext way way is to just create a new train from where you are with a new transit to get where you want to go, it has the advantage of being able to go anywhere.
Using a script simple terminate the train and create anew one.?
You can do the same thing with Transit Actions.
?
Look to see how its done in the "Dispatcher System" in the jython library.

Subject: [jmriusers] MACOS 15 (Sequoia) JMRI program halt
Date: Thursday, September 26, 2024 12:07 PM
I use a Mac Mini M1 8GB for JMRI and LCC configuration. Five times in the past month, when using Layout Editor (the one with the grid panel) hiding a panel causes JMRI to halt with no keyboard or mouse response until I use F4 to get to the MACOS Force Quit menu option. Force Quit closes out JMRI, but of course recent edits are lost. Using JMRI 5.9.3, Azul 17, MACOS 15.0
?
Otherwise, I can hide and reopen a panel repeatedly without triggering a JMRI halt.
?
Unfortunately, this is a random, occasional occurrence with no error message I know how to look for.?I have tried waiting a minute or so, but JMRI seems to have halted? I am good at continually saving my work, so not too aggravating.
?
I thought it best to at least report this and would appreciate any suggestions on how to trace it.

Hello Mike,
I'm not sure if anyone in JMRI is using SPINS information to route cars.? SPINS was created as an aid to help crews spot cars correctly.? There is nothing that says you cannot use SPINS information to help JMRI route cars.? You would just use the SPINS data in place of the alphabet formatted information in labeling your spurs.? If you go that route please let us know how it works.? Thanks and take care. Cheers, Dennis Drury

Additional information here:

What I'm looking for is how to name the industry. Instead of putting Wal-Mart spot 1 or Purina Chow unload 1, do you just put the number, 0415 for example? I'd think it could be as easy as that. Yes, I have a diagram of the track to match the number and industry but wanted to know how operators handled just a number vs. a name and location. Since the name of the building and location are easier to see on a model railroad verses a number that you have to reference another document.?
For real railroaders, I think the diagram and number would be easy and repeatable as a job. For us part time (model) railroaders, I think more details assist operators in performing their tasks.?
Thank you for any information.?

Hi there,
?
I have been using JMRI for a while but for the first time I am stuck with something. I am running some scripts but I think it yet not possible to do the following :
I use a python script to automate the creation of active train in the dispatcher using : jmri.jmrit.dispatcher.DispatcherFrame createActiveTrain setStarted
I run my trains using auto allocate and release of sections, with auto allocation to next safe section. However in some cases I would like to be able to force some more allocation as it is possible using the dispatcher button bellow, I would like to do so in a script. I found out that ? and ? are not available (private) may be I miss something?
