Place Panel Lug or Main OPD, the Panel Outline in One-Line Diagram
Also when a panel/switch board is inserted we currently draw the outline of the panel and the lug and/or main OPD is placed automatically. We would like to place the lug and/or OPD first so it is easier to line up devices.

Provide Consistent Ordering to Combined Circuit Descriptions

Make the circuit descriptions combine in a consistent manner. The default will be to sort them alphabetically. Include an option to force an different ordering on descriptions when alphabetical is not appropriate.
