Equilateral turnouts as a separate element with its own geometry for both main and deviating track

Currently, in order to create en equilateral turnout, one needs to recreate one of the branches (with exact geometry) and then add the branch part. This process has a lot of inconsistencies and sometimes results in unexpected geometries ( transiti...

Checkbox to turn on-/off alignments

It would be useful to be able to turn on-/off single alignments. Perhaps with a checkbox in the "OpenRail Model" section in the explorer, just like the ones in the "Feature definition" section in OpenRail Standards. This could probably be handy wi...

Civil Cell dgnlib - Sort by name rather than date created

Currently Civil Cells are sorted by date created rather than by name when loaded from a dgnlib. This makes it very difficult to sort these. Oddly, when they are within a file (where the civil cell is "living") they sort by name.

Ability to Export/Import Alignment With ALL Parts

Currently, the only way to export/import alignments appears to be using LandXML. Currently this does not appear to allow Exporting and Importing Event Points that are part of an Alignment. Since DGN's can be corrupted, there needs to be a method t...
