Allow Vertical Geometry Stationing (Profile Annotations) to Reflect Correct Horizontal Chord Definition Stationing

This would be useful for designers working on a project in which chord definition is the client's standard. Currently OpenRail does not correctly annotate the stationing in our profile sheets. The stationing displayed by OpenRail is correct in arc...

When exporting to the IFC, keep a different identification for each item.

Horizontal and vertical regression values displayed in mm

Reporting horizontal slues and vertical lift/lowers interactively in the plan or profile model always displays as per the working unit, which I have set to metres. It would be useful to display these values in millimetres

Control the level/feature definition of surface templates selection layer

Currently when you select a surface template in 3D view, a ghost mesh element under the "Default" level appears. I believe this element defines the surface template as a whole. There is presently no way of controlling this element to assign it a f...
