Hello,
I just realized, that the 'view'-label in the status bar is still
displaying the 'old' boardsize-names.
The appended patch replaces them with 'top' and 'bottom'.
Should I do a separate bug-report for this?
Kind regards,
Felix

My current work-around is to call pcb without a filename but with
multiple command line options to set the layer stack. After a save
with the desired name,

I think we decided that a while back. The group order *is* the
stacking order.
Now we just need to figure out how to enforce it :-)

The group numbering - and I don't see any reason why we can't stipulate
that is the rendering sequence.

OK, that could be used for stackup, and also farther along,
Z is a general axis designator, so would become Z position

I.e "none of us have time right now to completely rewrite how layers

This was a fairly quick change which should make the current PCB more

PCB draws in group order, not layer order.
So you can order the drawing layers as you wish, as long as the group
order is set to your stacking order.

1. Agree! I'd find this much more intuitive and easy to work with. The
layers option will be a big help...
2. What would go to the outline layer? The gerber files have outlines
for each layer right?

Pci cards call them A and B sides. But that too is odd. It seems that, like
it or not, top and bottom are the industry standard.

Main and Second are shorter and might convey similar meaning and be more
usable...

We can't just call them "this side" and "that side" :-)

Sometimes the outer layers are called Primary and Secondary.
Consider a board of memory chips. Some memories come in mirror image
