Excellent! I have been searching all over to see how that is done! I found nothing in the documentation connected with Dispatcher that explained how to put that little block on the panel! This made my day!

I don't know. I spent weeks programming arduinos with IR sensors to do automated colours aspects and spent maybe £500 on digital solenoid controllers and servo systems only to find out I could have done it all for 99p. Hats off to you fella, thanks for demistifying JMRI and automation, your stream will now be a reference point. Once again a big thank you.

Very smart - looks good to have the train name appear at its current block location.

Hello This helped me out with my Dispatcher thanks for the information. On my Panel I see the Engine number plus more info example PRR 6101 (DCC 6101) that is what is showing that makes for a long name Question is how to remove (DCC XXXX) from the train name Another thing is my panel has track that's is vertical can I orientate the text to go that way? Thanks

Good morning, I found your various videos about using JMRI very interesting. You explain very well. Thanks to you, I now have great interest with the JMRI software. I used JMRI and Layout editor to draw my network and control my various switches and occupied blocks. Now it’s time to use the Warrants to control my trains. But, I have trouble running my warrants it is probably because I have warning when I try to create Oblocks in the Occupancy Blocks table, I think. I'm probably missing a step and I can't find it. I would like to know if you can help me. I would like to know the required step before the creation of the Oblocks. I have already completed these tables: Turnout, sensors, signal head, blocks and sections. On my computer layout, I can control the turnouts and sensor are working as expected, my heads signals works well. In the Occupancy Blocks window, when I import blocks as Occupancy blocks, In JMRI, I have warnings messages like this for every block. Portal “ IP0008-0010 “ has no path into block “B-801”. The path in these blocks exist. And, in the logs, they look like this: 11:02:17.831 (136740) WARN [AWT-EventQueue-0] TableFrames.java:321 - an OBlock with this user name already exists, replacing B-801 I do not know how to fix this problem, do you have an idea what I did wrong or what I didn’t do. thanks
