The internal design is that the *only* layers are the copper ones, plus a special exception for the two silk layers. No paste, no mask, no outline, etc. One of the LF tasks was to add a layer type tag to each layer to identify if it was copper, mask, paste, silk, or outline, and if the drawings were positive or negative (i.e. anti-copper to cut up a polygon on another layer). _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
