I can reproduce it.
For some reason I can't.
I get silk on the far side displayed in grey as expected.

Thank you so much for your response.
Using PCB, I created a footprint for the PDS760 Schottky diode

Many thanks Peter it works perfectly now!

It is half a bug. Exactly square pads are defined by two points that
coincide. There is no orientation attached to this. So PCB assumes the
square shape should be aligened along the axis of the grid.
Exciting news everyone!

Yes, indeed.
And I realized this a few minutes after I wrote the post you answered

They're dynamically generated (M4 is a parser). So, you create one M4
template for a, say, DIP part, and then you can ask for any DIPN
footprint and it
Currently, it's just one background image, but you could change it to
load two and switch between them depending on which side of the board
you're looking at.

So, let me paraphrase what I think you said:
I create (or use) one m4 template (either symbol or footprint), that is
'generic' and when I want to instantiate that template in gschem I can
add/specify additional properties, i.e. #pins, signal direction, etc.

not?
Probably not. Easier to just create the specific footprints you want,
either manually or via a script, and save them in
Hi John,
I think you'll find it easiest if you ignore M4 at the start - you
don't need it.
One great resource is gedasymbols:

There are are lots of symbols and footprints there that have been
contributed by the community. You can search for them by name or
