Can I also please ask, if ?I add a mast that is not visible on the panel, is there a way to see or edit it afterwards ?
Sure there is. "Tools"->"Tables"->"Signals"->"Signal Masts" . Or "Tools"->"Tables"->"Signals"->"Signal Mast Logic" . As appropriate.
Also, can I ask why all of the signal heads appear in the Turnouts table ?
It depends on how you have defined the signals. If you build a JMRI "Signal Head" or a JMRI "Signal Mast" using individual JMRI "Turnout"s, by definition JMRI _must_ define the turnouts before it can use those "Turnout"s.
(This goes back to the original NMRA DCC specifications where where the only way to control anything of an "accessory" nature was via a DCC turnout. JMRI followed this assumption. And the majority of Signal hardware uses that same assumption. Where a hardware signaling device _does not_ use a DCC "Turnout" address, that device will generally not use a JMRI "Turnout".)
