Variations of the Layer Properties dialog
Summary
The Layer Properties dialog provides controls to configure the properties of a newly-added or existing layer entity. This could be a standard layer, a layer class, or an iterated layer (created automatically when adding a new printout set, or drill printout set).
Access
The dialog is accessed in the following ways:
- From the PCB Printout Properties dialog:
- Double-click on the entry for an existing layer entity.
- Select an existing layer entity, right-click then choose Properties from the context menu.
- From the Printout Properties dialog:
- Double-click on the required layer entity in the Layers region.
- Select the required layer entity in the Layers region then click Edit.
- From the PCB Printout Settings page of the Smart PDF Wizard (File » Smart PDF), right-click in the layers grid then select Insert Layer or Insert Layer Class from the context menu.
Options/Controls
Top Region
The controls presented in this region differs depending on the layer entity being configured:
- Standard Layer - when configuring a standard layer, this region presents the Print Layer Type field. Use it to choose/change the required layer. The drop-down presents all layers defined for the board.
- Layer Class - when configuring a layer class, this region presents the Layer Class Name field. Use it to choose/change the required layer class. The drop-down presents all existing layer classes defined for the board (as reflected in the Object Class Explorer dialog).
- Iterated Layer (associated with a printout set) - when configuring the iterated layer associated with a printout set, this region presents the Iterated Layer field. This is a read-only field that simply states One Layer In <LayerClass>, where <LayerClass> is the specific layer class chosen for the parent printout set.
- Iterated Layer (associated with a drill printout set) - when configuring the iterated layer associated with a drill printout set, this region presents the Iterated Layer field. This is a read-only field that simply states <DrillLayer> For One Layer Pair, where <DrillLayer> is the specific drill layer (Drill Drawing or Drill Guide) chosen for the parent drill printout set.
Free Primitives
This region provides controls to determine how the free primitives on a layer are displayed on the printout. For the following free primitive objects, use the associated drop-down field to choose whether to display the object fully (Full), in outline mode only (Draft), or hide the object (Off).
- Arcs
- Fills
- Pads
- Strings
- Tracks
- Vias
- Regions
The following buttons are available at the bottom of the region to quickly switch the setting for all objects in a single action:
- Full - click this button to set the display option for all free primitives to Full.
- Draft - click this button to set the display option for all free primitives to Draft.
- Hide - click this button to set the display option for all free primitives to Off.
Component Primitives
This region provides controls to determine how the component primitives on a layer are displayed on the printout. For the following component primitive objects, use the associated drop-down field to choose whether to display the object fully (Full), in outline mode only (Draft), or hide the object (Off).
- Arcs
- Fills
- Pads
- Strings
- Tracks
- Vias
- Regions
The following buttons are available at the bottom of the region to quickly switch the setting for all objects in a single action:
- Full - click this button to set the display option for all component primitives to Full.
- Draft - click this button to set the display option for all component primitives to Draft.
- Hide - click this button to set the display option for all component primitives to Off.
Others
This region provides controls to determine how other objects on a layer are displayed on the printout. For the following objects, use the associated drop-down field to choose whether to display the object fully (Full), in outline mode only (Draft), or hide the object (Off).
- Designators
- Comments
- Polygons
- Dimensions
- Coordinates
The following buttons are available at the bottom of the region, to quickly switch the setting for all objects in a single action:
- Full - click this button to set the display option for all objects to Full.
- Draft - click this button to set the display option for all objects to Draft.
- Hide - click this button to set the display option for all objects to Off.
Drill Layers
Use this region when configuring a drill layer (Drill Drawing/Drill Guide).
- First - use this field to specify the starting layer for the required drill pair. The drop-down lists all available signal and internal plane layers defined in the board's layer stack.
- Last - use this field to specify the finishing layer for the required drill pair. The drop-down lists all available signal and internal plane layers defined in the board's layer stack.
Configure Drill Symbols
