Bug Description
I have footprints that contain silkscreen layer. When I disable the silkscreen layer in my design, than I get on every line/reference error 49. Example:
ErrType(49): Item on a disabled layer
@ (120.630 mm,80.200 mm): “Graphic (Line) on F.SilkS of C202” is on a disabled layer
When a layer is disable, it should not be checked by the DRC.
Attached I added my design and when you run the DRC you get 601 errors. When the F.Silks is enable, then there are no error.

@Corné, are you aware that you can hide/show layers (using the layer manager to the right of the screen)?
Disabling a layer says it's no longer part of your board. Layers aren't meant to be disabled/reenabled as a common course of action.
