layout
"layout" is understood as "track diagram control board", in which
individual areas of a layout can be represented in a simplified form.
The use of such a representation enables you to switch routes more
easily, since you no longer have to work with the names of turnouts (or
signals). The turnouts are recognized visually. You can also
immediately recognize the setting for a turnout.
The individual elements can be arranged in the configuration mode, reached by the button .
The available elements are selected by clicking on right field with a
blue background and can then be inserted in the corresponding square
with a click.
The following elements are available:
Straight Track
Crossing
Track Crossing with a Bridge
Track End (Track Bumper)
Diagonal Track
Two Parallel Diagonal Tracks
Tunnel Entry or Exit
Left Turnout
Right Turnout
Three-Way Turnout

be used to change elements in the track diagram. The following tools
are available:

Note:
Text inserted into the track diagram is always assigned to a box in the
diagram and can be processed or deleted in this box. The text from
assigned boxes is represented in the layout starting slightly shifted
to the right and below.
