Allegro breaks everything down by layer. I can create padstacks with any
given layer count and do something unique on top, internal, and bottom
layers with regards to copper, mask, and paste (not internal). Per layer I
can set zone connection type (solid, thermals, etc.), zone spoke width,
etc. The

Just to be clear: I’m not looking at implementing it. But I’d need to know
what direction we were moving in *if* I were to impl
In Altium (and I suspect in other commercial tools) there are two
different types of pad behavior: when creating/editing/viewing
footprints, and when working on the board.
When editing footprints, you only have the concept of top, middle, and
bottom layers. You don't know the full board stackup.

Most users are looking to route traces on inner layers between tight pads.
