TrainController Gold and Silver - Freiwald Software

All routes displayed in the dispatcher window, whether displayed in the route list or in
the block diagram, can be operated with mouse click, too, when edit mode is turned off.
5.19 Customizing the Dispatcher Window
General
The dispatcher window can be freely resized and zoomed. This allows you to let the
display fit the dimensions of the displayed block diagram optimally.
The colors of the window background, blocks and connecting routes can be adjusted to
personal taste, too.
The display of block signals and train images can be turned on or off.
Additionally to these general customization features, which were also available in previous
versions of the software, TrainController provides the following additional
customization features:
• A new option allows the reset of all display options to factory defaults.
• It is optionally possible to display the names of blocks in the block diagram, when
edit mode is turned off. Previous versions of the software displayed block names
solely in edit mode.
• Active routes can be displayed with individually specified colors (as in previous
versions), or with the color of the reserving train, if any, or with a color, that is
common for all active routes.
• The highlight color of occupied routes can be controlled by the reserving train, if
any, as in previous versions, or by the color of the occupied indicator or by specifying
a constant color value.
• The display intensity of blocks and routes, that do not belong to the currently selected
schedule can be dimmed to fit personal taste and to support low contrast display
environments.
Visibility of Schedules
The visibility of schedules in the dispatcher window can be limited during operation to
those schedules, that you actually want to see listed then. This is controlled by the option
Visibility in Edit mode only in the properties of each schedule. If this option is
turned on, then the schedule does not occur in the schedule list in the dispatcher win-
