I would think that all the content would still be in place, but everything will have shifted and would need to be realigned or adjusted. The critical issue would be regarding track objects staying connected in all the right places. We will be curious to see how this works. There shouldn抰 be any damage to the original panel as long as you create or rename the new one.

The panel is XML, so that's a form of text. But the big issue in the back of
my mind is that many of the objects are not symmetrical. Many of the objects
have the anchor point as a corner, not a center. And a crossover has four
different anchor points. So there may be a number of things that won't place
right by simple math methods. It may require building a whole set of
adjustments to be applied on a type by type basis to get them to the right
places.
I'm hoping other folk can fill in how possible or not the whole idea is to
do it by math.
