I also tried to do it. Well,to say it more into detail, I tried to design a module (footprint) that would contain text on both silkscreen layers. Unfortunately, I noticed this thing is not possible, can anybody confirm this? Thanks!

To: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 2:10 PM Hi, Maybe you are using a version with a bug. I have try to force a text to change from component silkscreen to copper silscreen and I couldn't. Does it happen to all your components on the component layer?
