I'm not sure where the appropriate place is to place functionality/feature requests. If this is not the best location, can you please direct me: In most modern CAD platforms I use, zooming in on a loc

#FeatureRequest #HowTo

OK, let me see if I got this... When you select a different layer, the code takes a "snapshot" of all the current settings, and changes only those that the settings file for the new layer specifies. E

#FeatureRequest

Jack, 1. The ability to leave things alone is already inherent in the selection of a settings file - because any values not changed in it (with no entry for them) would be left alone. That's where a u

Hi Adam, Nice job! The "Layers" functionality looks good to me. I have 2 suggestions about the "settings" functionality: 1/ I think there should be 3 possibilities for each particular setting: 1) chan

#FeatureRequest

Bump. Any comments on the feature set and how applicable it is to the use-cases? Adam

Alan, There is an update to the request about construction dimensions for Cornu tracks in SourceForge with a proposal that I would like your input on please, to know if we should proceed or we need to

#FeatureRequest

Anyone have any observations? Mark's request for groups that are hidden and shown together is part of the solution. I have not included Notes - as Notes can be placed on a layer or links provided to e

#FeatureRequest

I have some functions to hopefully address a useful subset of these "layer and setting related" requirements in a development branch now - note that the naming of stuff is likely to change. My design

#FeatureRequest

So I have some rough stuff together on two things on a code branch. 1. Layers can hide their button on the toolbar. This preserves toolbar real-estate. 2. A Layer can have a comma delimited list of la

#FeatureRequest

Martin and I just added auto-repeat to the hotbar scroll buttons while the button is held down. Two speeds -> slower for 10 units and then 1.5x as fast as that. Adam

#FeatureRequest

My layout is all HO, and it has separate layers for Mainline, Logging, Branch, EngineYard, and FreightYard, plus others for construction details - wiring, framework, etc. Each of those might warrant d

#FeatureRequest

I think the idea of Layer Groups is probably separate to this idea of named settings sets. Groups are (potentially) a way of controlling the visibility and frozeness of sets of layers. And if that is

#FeatureRequest

All. Just thinking out loud here. If a given layer can be assigned to more than one group, and groups share settings (if I read that correctly), how do you resolve conflicts where a group has differen

#FeatureRequest

Jack, Some of these things seem to be items that are best associated with Scale/Gauge - which might be things that would apply whenever that scale was selected regardless of Layer, perhaps? For exampl

If you're about to dig into Layers, I have one feature request to toss in.... "Associate Layout and App Settings with a Layer" Layers are used for lots of different types of layout elements. When you'

Adam, I would think that one Note page would be enough. The amount of work shown in a layer is far more limited then for the whole layout... I just date the entries in the main Notes tab under file an

Adam, Here a video of freezing/thawing multiple layer in AutoCAD with one click, but to do this you must be able to select multiple layers at once. https://www.loom.com/share/d9a4f46c3bd74e3a83e261ad5
