Hi
There has been a bug in RS & RW that I could not figure out.
I have just found out how to replicate it.
While levelling terrain to track (Snap).
If you hold down the mouse and go of the screen work area & and come back again, the leveling gets locked ON.
If you don’t notice it , you can do damage to your route work.
This also happens with painting the terrain & probably others too.
I can replicate this bug without fail. This has been passed on to RS.COM
Cheers
Alex

Hi, I can replicate this also. I am not sure if it is a bug, or just the system "loosing focus" of what your doing.

Re: Paint terrain & leveling locking on bug.
I always found that KRS & RW get confused when you move the mouse out of the window. Bug or no, I accepted the windowed mode to be the exceptional mode of usage and tried to adapt my behaviour. E.g., when I move something up by dragging the up arrow of the gizmo, I must release the mouse while it is still in the window, although I would like to raise the gizmo further (and the gizmo is still in the window).
Most likely, Windows does not send the "mouse events" to the RW window when the mouse it outside (or not all, or not reliable).

I should have said, you do not have to go outside the RailWorks system window to show up the BUG.
When I have had the left hand menus out and locked the BUG happens if you cross them and come back to the area where you are working.
It has nothing to do with Windows.
