First off I would like to thank EVERYONE who offered to take a look at my
board.
Colby,
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!
After reading your email, I scanned my board at almost maximum zoom and
noticed that I had accidentally drawn a component silkscreen on the
MultiLayer. very hard to catch by the naked eye due to the default color
settings. Top overlay is white, and the MultiLayer is grey.
I am going to change the color setting on the MultiLAyer to Fluoresant Pink
or anything else that is easy to see so I can avoid this problem in the
future.
:)
Very kind regards,
Bryan Bernesi
