Thanks Ira for the information.
As a 7.0 owner I checked the website and downloaded the release notes and the demo...

Actually I can do my thing fine with version 7.0, so I don't think I will update.

I love wintrack, but unfortunately they still don't have a Tomix track library. I know I could create one, but I'm using the old fashioned pen and paper trick (after which I use Maya to model everything in 3d ;))

I have tried Wintrack version 8 demo for about a week now. It's just as good as 7, but only a few small improvements over it. If you wanted to get Wintrack buy version 8, but if you already have version 7 there isn't really any reason to upgrade to 8 unless you really want the latest and greatest.

Question , Ira. I have tried to download the demo version of WinTrack in English. No luck - do you know if it is available?

When it comes to compatability with Vista, it is really programs that integrate with the OS that are of concern (CD Burrning software, Virus protection, CD/DVD emulators such as Deamon Tools)

Hal- Unfortunately no, the demo is only available in German. If you click on the English flag below the left hand menu you can get a page that says download demo, but once you click on that it takes you to a form that you must fill out for a password, I haven't bothered to do that, so maybe it's possible to get one that way I don't know. Just be aware that the clicking on the English flag takes you to another company's website, it may be affiliated with Wintrack, but it isn't Wintrack.

The demo version for the English version is still at version 7.

Ira/Maxi - thanks for the responses! I've been thru the password routine - some of the intro language is in English but the demo comes up in German. I will try with V7 - it will certainly be good enough to learn something about the program.

Trying to plan the details of a fairly large layout (+/-100 square feet/about 8 square meters - final shape under consideration) is not easy for this enthusiastic amateur. A computer-based aid would help tremendously -thus my interest.
