Turnouts - explanation of .2 and .3

Andrew Turner — Tue, 19 Jan 2021 11:02:14 GMT

Hello,

I have a question about points .2 and .3 on turnout definitions.

I understand .2 relates to the 'Distance along main line' field when creating a definition, but what is this supposed to align with in reality? I've made the assumption in the past that this would indicate the last long bearer (LLB) position. Does .3 also relate to the LLB position (on the turnout route)?

Turnout library edits

Andrew Turner — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 15:46:00 GMT

Hi,

I work for an IM and am looking to make some edits to the turnout library. Two questions:

How can I request that additional geometries over and above those supplied with the software as standard are included with future versions?
Is the Turnout Library interface no longer available in ORD? (as it was in previous versions of BRT). Is the only way of adding new turnout definitions through creating an XML by hand and importing using RAIL TURNOUT IMPORT?

Thanks,

Andrew

ProjectWise permissions question

Andrew Turner — Thu, 02 Nov 2017 11:27:57 GMT

I am trying to set specific permissions on a folder in ProjectWise.

There is a user group (say 'All Users') which contains all users who by default have Read access to everything within the Project.

I would like to create an additional user group (say 'Special Users') with users who will have Read access to a specific folder within the Project. I do not want other members of the 'All Users' group to have access to this specific folder. The users in 'Special Users' are also members of 'All Users'

If I remove the Read access for 'All Users' to this specific folder, 'No Access' is automatically applied which then overrides the Read access given to the 'Special Users' group.

Is there a way I can restrict access for all other users in the 'All Users' group whilst retaining access for those users who are also within 'Special Users'? I know I could just remove users who are in both groups from the 'All Users' group, but I would then need to set permissions specifically for every other part of the project for the 'Special Users' group.
