adding layers to a board

npdconsultant

 How do I add layers to the artwork listing? When creating a board only two layers are created, the top and bottom etch. I need to add the top and bottom mask as well as top and bottom silk layers, There appears to be no way to do this. Any help?

     Adding copper layers:Setup->Cross Section

    The silk & mask are part of the artwork setup in the Manufacture->Artwork section.  You can produce mask and silk from any object on the board.  You can add lines/shapes to either artwork by adding directly to the board or by adding the appropriate information to the part symbol.  Mask & silk objects are found in the Board Geometry layers and Package Geometry layers typically.
