Pastemask layer Order in cadence 3D view have incremented by 1layer!!

jishu

I am using PCBEditor v17.4 s014 and have been facing an issue with the pastemask layer i.e in my layer stack up the order is :

soldermask 0.02
pastemask 0.7
top 0.035
dielectric 0.2
bottom 0.035
pastemask 0.7
soldermask 0.02

but once I open the 3d viewer the layer stack-up changes to:

pastemask 0.7
soldermask 0.02
top 0.035
dielectric 0.2
pastemask 0.7
Bottom 0.035
soldermask 0.02

and because of that, my view in 3d is disturbed(shown below image) the pastemask is shown above the bottom layer, this issue is the same for all the designs. checked with cadence_demo.brd as well

    Pastemask (solder paste) is usually printed on a complete board so would always be the final layer on a board - try re-arranging your cross section so that pastemask is after soldermask......
