XtrkCAD question - stuck with placement

Hey guys - Have run into an issue with XtrkCad and was hoping someone could help.

 

I am trying to plan a UNITRACK layout, and have set up the related libraries in XTrkCAD. I am trying to do a simple double track concrete loop with superelevated curves (which involves the easement curves).

 

I can't seem to place the easement curve the way I want it to go, have tried using the shift key - but that hasn't worked, for some reason the program places the curve over the straight track. pic attached...

 

help! thanks :)

Ugh - found the problem and solution:

Just my luck that the 5th piece of track i put in my layout is the only one with issues in the Xtrk parameter file, anyway - fixed the problem with the parameter file downloaded from the group.

 

FYI: if you are downloading Xtrk 4.0.3a from the site, the bundled xtp file for Kato-N-double track has an issue with track 20-182L, the xtp file from the above mentioned yahoo group (free to join-no approvals) fixes this issue.
