  • Hi,

     It is worth noticing that the 'color view' contains visibility settings. So whatever is visible when you save a 'color view' is the same that's going to be made visible when you 'load' it in the visibility control panel.

    In setup, user preferences, config_paths, viewpath you can set the directory paths to a place where you can store visibility views (color views). So for larger organisations it is possible to use the same set of visibility settings.

     Typically I see users having a soldermask_top view where they have only pins, vias turned on for etch and soldermask. This makes it easy to look at soldermask compared to pad sizes.
