Draw mode

SketchTrack does not always draw tracks the same way. While planning, a single-line representation of the layout might be enough. Later on, a detailed 3D image with sleepers and rails might be needed. The drawing mode can be changed at any place in a SketchTrack program.

Draw mode

mode defines the way tracks are drawn.

nothing nothing is drawn (use for e.g. ballast only)
line single center line
2lines the two rails as lines
rails the two rails as 3D bars
sleepers the complete track including sleepers
s49 draws complete track including sleepers with the old German “S49” track profile

The image below shows all modes with ballast off and on.
