A warning sign in the shape of a saltire is also used to indicate the point at which a railway line intersects a road at a level crossing.
The lines usually run vertically and horizontally; if they run obliquely, the design is technically termed a saltire, although the arms of a saltire need not meet at right angles.
The tiara is usually set above the escutcheon, while the keys are in saltire, passing behind it (formerly also "en cimier", below the tiara and above the shield).
A saltire is used to indicate a direction should "not" be taken: the cross will have the same colours as the blazes (each bar will use a different colour).
The saltire and the book are surrounded by four other stars each also of six points which are placed in the spaces formed by the saltire.
In the window is his shield in painted glass, vert, a saltire between four lilies slipped argent.
The center of the saltire merges into a white disk, on which there are three red solid six-pointed stars outlined in green.
Bearing the same vertical white-black layout, a white saltire was also included on the black stripe.
