Track Editor

The track editor contains various functions to design track layouts which can the be used as a base information for racing and timing.

When the track editor is opened, the whole track is displayed in the graphics area of the window. Additional dialogs for prototypes10AVOVQ and section lists_OINR. may be opened via the menu Track Editor Functions124QWCX . If the data is saved when existing Slotman, size and position is saved as well as information if these dialogs where opened last time the track editor has been used. This information is treated resolution-independently so if the same slotman.dat file is used on various computers running different resolutions the presets for these resolutions are saved independently.

The display may be zoomed in or out. If the layout isn´t visible completely, scrollbars can be used to view all parts of the layout.

The track uses the following modes:

Selection Mode: This mode is used for selecting track sections you want to change.

Move/Rotate: This mode provides functions for moving (left mouse button) or rotating (right mouse button) the layout. Rotation is performed about the start point of the first section. This mode is available all the time but usefull only if a floorplan of the room is used.

Floorplan Mode: Change to floorplan mode if you want to move the floorplan relatively to the track layout.

Zoom In: Changes the cursor to a magnification glass. In this mode the display can be soomed in by the factor of 2. This functionality is also available in other modes by pressing the right mouse button.
