Path Creation

[duke1234]

I'm a bit confused on how to accomplish something while creating a path. For the sake of simplicity I want to create a path on a single switch with the built in OR trackviewer.

I have the train come in from rear of the turnout on the "through" (straight) side of the switch and out past the front of the turnout, it travels down the tracks and hits a reversal point, the train switches directions and this time takes the diverging (curved) side of the turnout. I'm sure its something simple that I am missing, but after placing the reversal point, the trackview acts as if I'm still editing that first leg and I am unable to "take the other exit" since Trackview believes the direction of travel hasn't changed. What am I missing?

For anyone else having this issue, you need to use Shift + Pg Up, to advance past the reversal node. All is well now!

Glad you figured it out. Just an FYI when making passing paths in your path creation in areas where complex paths are available (multiple switch nodes to rejoin original path) right click to select the node of the turnout you want to complete the passing path on the main path and select "reconnect passing path" from the drop down menu.
