object height adjustment

[jspaughton]

can anybody tell me if there is a way to manually adjust the height of objects as dragging up and down with the mouse either puts them too high or too low in relation to other objects. i.e. passengers standing on a platform.

Hold down the Control key while dragging with the mouse to make smaller height adjustments.

Holding the control key whilst adjusting height uses increments of 0.1 metre. Without control key the increments are 1 metre. It was the other way round in TRS2004 - and for a long-term user of TRS 2004 takes some getting used to!

Incidentally, these are the same increments if using imperial rather than metric measurements.

thanks for that it solved the problem. if only everything was so simple.

Just to add to the 'Ctrl' key = .1 increment, holding the 'Shift' key = .05 increments...

Also:

Some items like: "Curve Radius 150m-600m" have a limited height adjustment of +/-50m.

You can change the assets config file tag: height-range -500,500

Thanks for the 0.05 metre tip, Dermmy I didn't know that - very useful advice.

Good evening everyone.

Thanks for the 0.05 metre tip, Dermmy I didn't know that - very useful advice.

That does sound a nice tip (thanks for sharing Andy). Great for getting those close up placements set perfectly!

It doesn’t work in ’04 for me though. Does anyone know if there is a tweak in TrainzObjectz/TrainzOptions (or elsewhere) that will add this function?
