Turnout .1 information is missing in xlm reports

Hi

I wonder why the information related to .1 in turnuts, is not any longer presented in my XML-reports.
I am using  Power rail track V08.11.07.685

I guess it is a code mistake, but if anyone has another explanation it will be much appreciated

  • If the turnout is defined with a non-zero Theoretical .1 to .1 distance, then the software will output the Theoretical .1 rather than .1. In fact the .1 is not even persisted into the .alg.

  • Hi Richard
    Your explanation is not consistent with what I've experienced right up to-, and including version 615.
    Until version ...615 I have never had any problems getting the physical front (.1) in the turnout reports.
    Actually, I do not think the contractor has much benefit from having the theoretical front (t.1) ( but I appreciate it's in the report).
    Please have another look at it.

    To be honest, I think even the front of the point blades could be "nice to have" in the reports, because this is the most reliable survey point in a turnout and signaling colleagues is only refering to that point.

  • I know this was posted a long time ago, but it's still very much an issue when creating setting out data for the contractor.
    Is it being looked into?

    Or is there some kind of work around, that doesn't include manually getting the coordinates from a modelfile?

  • Hi Richard
    I don't think I ever got a proper answer on this one - so now I will try again.
    I have lots of documentation showing, that we actually got the .1 point in the reports earlyer - even though there was a distance between the theoretical .1 and .1.
    As I wrote to you back in March we actually need this point, so I really don't see the purpose of removing it from the XML-file (if that was what happened).
    Yes, I know there exist workarounds, but honestly why not keep it simple?

    Please tell me what to insert in the style sheet, to overcome this problem.

    Thanks in advance and best regards Arne Tjell (COWI - Denmark)
