To design a track segment in meander style means bringing it into length within a certain distance by adding a "drapery".

Overhangs to the left and the right can vary. Right and left are ment according to the running direction of the signal hit (depends on the black end box hit). The definition of length, here: 15 mm, can apply to the complete signal or only to the highlighted track segment. In our example it is only one segment. The result might look that way:
