The Layer Information dialog.
Summary
The Layer Information dialog allows a large degree of control over the layer information displayed in the Layer Stack Legend view table.
Access
From the Layer Stack Legend mode of the Properties panel, click the Configurations button (Under the Settings region of the panel).
Options/Controls
From the table, users can toggle the visibility of the outer layers (Paste, Solder Masks, and Silkscreen overlays) by enabling or disabling the checkboxes under the Visible column. Users can also edit the content of individual table cells. The cells are initially populated from the board Layer Stack data, however once a cell has been manually edited it will not be updated from the board data (Tools » Update Board).
The Layer Information dialog also allows the following editing options:
- Pattern - Define the display color for each layer. Click the
button to open the Fill Style dialog and select the desired pattern and color, or enable the Use Default Color option to use the system assigned color. - Columns - Use the drop-down to hide, move, and rename columns in the table. Columns can also be added and removed, or new custom columns created.
Define the Total information data, data shown in the table footer. This displays the total board thickness by default, but can be renamed or set to a custom value – note that the footer visibility can be toggled with the Show Footer option under Table Styles in the Properties panel.
