Larry is right, while usefule TD's time has come and I expect Cary's
TrackDraw application will be far better in the long run. I got to play
with it before Cary went to BrickFest and I must say the ability to zoom in
and out makes it more useful than TD for a lot of applications already! The
selection paradigm is better too - how many times have you tried to select a
piece of track in TD only to select the baseplate underneath it. Even in
it's early Alpha state, TrackDraw's selection mechanism is better than TD's
is.
