Notes #

A plain text notepad is added on the Home tab.

Show tab #

The Show tab has more options to switch certain aspects of the track plan on or off.

Images #

Handling images is easier in AnyRail 7.

An image is always loaded onto a surface. Resizing an image has become a lot easier with Follow outline checked.

With this function on, the surface is made rectangular, and when resized, the image is resized along.

Connections #

Imperfect connections have a small red diamond on them. This means that the connection is there, but there is an overlap, a gap or a kink between the two track ends.

Track coloring #

1. Coloring with Centerline selected on the Show tab. #

For non-sections, the rails color comes from the default colors in File / Options / Colors.

For sections, the rails color is the section color.
