JMRI icon best practices

[NP01]

Hi,

I am doing a panel for my railroad (Francisquito Valley, track plans and build thread elsewhere on this forum) on JMRI. 

Just want a simple panel- not really looking for a US&S prototype or anything. 

What icon set to use? I am presently using mediumschematics>track and tracksegments. I have issues with both:

• Branches are hard to do. Only 90 degree curves. 
• Segment has "ends" to it, so if I had a long block it looks like multiple blocks
• I can't combine sensor and turnouts; so turnouts don't change color when that block is active. 

Rather than hang doing a bunch of hand-made images, I am  wondering what works?

Why not use Layout editor instead of Panel editor.

I will try this ... thank you. I have been wondering what the Layout vs. Panel Editor does ...
