Inside Rail Pivot for Swept Envelope

In railway design, the standard practice is to pivot at the inside (low) rail when applying cant and generating swept envelopes. Currently, OpenRail Designer does not provide an option for this; users must create complex templates with point controls to replicate the behavior. Request to add a built-in setting to select the inside rail as the pivot point for swept envelope calculations, similar to Bentley Rail Track.
