How do additional inner layers come into the mix? Shouldn't the be
granted with layer groups too like:
top
inner_layer1
inner_layer2
bottom
Come to think of it, sil
Er... you're probably right.

Right, see the png stuff again. Given a layer, you need to determine

That rendered funny (top via colours) until I "fiddled" with the layer
groups somehow.. looking at the resul
Try this board:

It has multiple layers per group, despite being only two sided.

Check out the photo-mode stuff in the png hid; it has to do stuff in

In the photo you included, the physical stackup would be:
component
solder
outline
GND
power
signal1
signal2
signal3
Note that the lesstif HID uses the same type of layout grid.
If you're iterating from 0..max_layers, just use it as the array index
into PCB->LayerGroups.Entries[]. The only cat

That's going to have to come from extra data we don't have in the .pcb format
now.

Exporting as shown vs. stack up seems tricky.

For a physical stackup, you want to iterate through the layer groups,
not the layer stack. For each group, draw all the l

I got very (ve
The whole problem of "physical stack" is something we're working on
separately. I think we've agreed that the physical stack is
determined by the layer *group* order, from the "component" group
through the "solder" group. This breaks when you have copper outside
those two, like "component, solde

--as-shown determines whether you use the layer stack as shown, or the
layer stack as defined by the pcb. It's a "what's on

Sure. I feel this should remain unavoidable.

I think the fundamental problem is that we're mixing core actions
(like setting the layer stackup) with GUI actions (like which side
we're viewing). That's why the png exporter has it's own "other side"
option.
Perhaps we could extend the option which sets the visible layer stack
to figure out (
