To open up the wardrobe trunk in Tumblety's place, I just tried an exhaustive approach.
There are only 6 dates at the bottom of the screen. Put one of them in all 5 latches and start flipping through the flags and hats/coats until the bolt on the right unlocks. Repeat the same process for the rest of the latches, except for Vicksburg.
The date for Vicksburg is 1 day after the date for Gettysburg, as indicated by 'The morrow, the key!' message scribbled on the face of the lock.


020563 - Chancellorsville, Flag: white star, blue background, Hat: greyish
030763 - Gettysburg, Flag: green, Hat: green
210968 - DOESN'T WORK
121971 - DOESN'T WORK
120461 - Fort Sumter, Flag: Confederate (blue X, red background), Hat: grey
170962 - Antietam, Flag: blue with eagle, Hat: blue
040763 - Vicksburg, Flag: blue? Hat: blue? [didn't see clearly, as it was the last lock I was solving]

If you have to draw free-form on the PC version, I can't help. But if it's a point-and-click interface, like the X360 version...
You need to draw a circle by click the middle of the green line between Dutfield's Yard and Mitre Square, and expanding the circle until it touches both places.

My first try also was not successful. Try my (wrong) method.
Make an oval by clicking on Dutfield's Yard to Mitre Square.
Make another oval by clicking on Mitre Square to Dutfield's Yard.
Try (and most likely fail) to draw an ellipsis from where these two ovals intersect, from top intersecting point to bottom one.
After all this, you should be able to easily click on the middle of the green line and draw and circle that touches Dutfield's Yard and Mitre Square.

For the X360 version...
Examine the "couples" nearby and the lone streetlight.
Examine crime scene: barn/stable door, bonnet near hand and ground near body.
Examine body: blood pool, throat slit, 2 bruises, tongue and stomach area.

During the re-enactment, have Watson stand up and attack with knife from all 3 directions.
Have Watson lie down and use knife in left and right hands. Change killer's position to all 3 directions, with knife in left and right hand.
Using bare hands, strangle Watson lying down, then standing up. Try all 3 directions when strangling standing victim.
When you have all the clues and possible scenarios, you can complete P. Nichol's Deduction board.

Bonnet + poorly-lit + "exercise' = holding bonnet in hand = she wasn't afraid = had bonnet in hand, ready to "exercise"
No blood on wall = slit lying down = throat slit
Little pool of blood = blood didn't flow in strong spurts
Dirty and damp ground = couldn't have relations on ground
Didn't have throat slit while standing + blood didn't flow in strong spurts + couldn't have relations on ground = P. Nichols was dead before being stretched out and having throat slit
Tongue is bloated = P. Nichols was strangled
Corpse still warm + no footsteps + cut open throat = victim wasn't dragged = P. Nichols' murder took
Place on the premises
Bruise on right jawbone = hard pressure by fingers + standing in front to strangle = left hand stopped her from screaming = right hand for strangling + throat slit from left to right + sitting on victim, knife in left/right hand = is killer left or right-handed? = killer is strong man

If any of your presumptions on the right of the screen aren't green, change up the options in the middle until they are.

From the X360 version...
Your magnet (and the hole) is in the upper left corner. The other magnet (and the hook) is in the lower right corner.
Slide your magnet down a bit, then make the other magnet go between the two blocks/obstructions on the right side of the pane, make the 2 magnets overlap, then use your magnet to follow the path the other magnet took back down to the bottom right corner.
Then slide the top part of the desk to reveal a tiny hole and use the hook.
