Good Morning:

I guess I need a refresher course on switching and uncoupling. The screen shot is showing car number 32 and number 33. Back in the good old days I could move from car to car in the Train Operations window by clicking on the small arrow on each end of the window. I am aware that I can use the mouse to uncouple the cars between 32 and 33, but when I open the Car Operations Window, it will be for car for 2 3 or 4.

So I need a lesson on how to move the inside the Train Operations window.

Thanks for all you guys are doing.

Doesn´t clicking on the arrows in the bottom row of the F9 window move the window contents? (You even have one of those arrows circled)

Cheers, Markus

Thanks for the come back. On my computer I can't move the train by clicking on the arrows. The only thing that happens is the whole F9 window moves or the last car in the window uncouples. I thought that I was missing something so that is why I was asking.

Clicking inside the row for the moving bar doesn´t work either, right?

Also, could you pls attach a log file from ORTS, just to get us the necessary info on version and computer specs, if necessary.

Cheers, Markus

To add:
I've felt the 'hotspots' (clickable areas) were a bit small and hard to find.
A mouse hover highlighting the coupler when hovering would be helpful.

Also in MSTS view 3 you could jump from car to car by clicking on the car.

Best,
vince
