    This can be done by right clicking in blank space in the dialog. Click Customize and you can add more parameters to the inputs.

    I am aware of the ability to add customization to several different curved tools. This idea is specific for the arc between elements /simple arc tool. I would like more options than just Radius to calculate this simply arc. This delta angle is set by the graphics, but I would like the ability to enter the tangent length, length of curve, external, mid ordinance and chord instead of the Radius. I am able to enter a degree of curve if I use the correct syntax entered in the Radius location. You could even add a curve calculator similar to what OpenRail Designer has for a design calculator.
