Just wondering about content manager

[rickf77]

Good morning; There are several CNR switch stands showing in the CM. Only a couple were showing in the surveyor track list, not the ones I wanted. I then looked in CM again, under "installed", and the ones I wanted were not showing. I then went to the "all" list in CM and right clicked on them and clicked download, and they now are showing on the surveyors list. I'm really happy with that. Up until now I thought anything you saw on the CM list was already installed?

Cheers....Rick

The main way of knowing that an asset is installed is to check for the laptop icon in the left column. There may be other icons, but the one that should not be there for installed content is the DS icon.

These things do happen. For reference, there is a list of what the status icons mean at http://trainz.shaneturner.co.uk/tut...rstanding-the-various-icons-in-search-results.

Okay so what did you have to do then?

I would suggest reading this whole thread;

But the FAQ for TS2010 is in the second post, by default when you first install TS2010 it's set to show somebody's "favorites" only, and hide everything else.
