Coloring a track contact

[Herman]

Hello @Neo,

Just a very minor request for the future ? But not important.

Sometimes I want an extra color for a track contact. ( extra to the standard coloring, and taken from the catalog - tracks - color )
If we do so, the wrong end is colored compared to normal track contacts.  ( a remnant of earlier versions ? )

 

Kind regards,

Herman (BE)

Hello Herman

apparently, you've chosen one of the colours from the assortment for tracks.

They have two sections.
The left is used for sleepers and bedding, while the strip on the right is for the actual rail.

It seems that the colour from the right hand side is used for the active part of the contact and the colour from the left is used for the inactive arrowhead.

(This is just to clarify what you're actually seeing and why.)

Kind regards
Goetz

Exactly. I used this, because this subsection of tracks has colors.  But such track contacts are confusing because of the arrowhead. And for double active track contacts ( both directions are black if you use such color here )

Probably those colors are only intended for tracks, where they work fine to give a temporary effect on a track.

But then let's refrase the request - and still not important - could we get more standard colors in the track contacts ( now 10 )
 

@Goetz Thank you for the remark ! That's nice.

Kind regards,

Herman
