No silk or other visible on components flipped to back side

[Olavur Christiansen]

Im running BZR 7083, git 733aedd (nightly build) on windows 10

When flipping components on the back side, the silk and other layers are not visible.
The silk layer is visible in the 3D viewer.

Best Regards
Olavur

There seems to be a problem with the F.mask and F.paste also when flipping components to back side.

[Eldar Khayrullin (eldar)]

$ git show 733aedd
fatal: ambiguous argument '733aedd': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

Check options of Layer and Render tabs (give screenshoot).

What the current canvas?

Hi

I created a new project and then tried to flip a component to back side. This time I had no problems viewing the solkscreen.
So I have to investigate this further.

@Olavur
try to attach the probematic project.

I also couldn't reproduce in 7083 nightly with Win7/x64 OpenGL.

If you want footprints visible on the back side, make them visible (see the layer manager render options).
I am guessing they are set as not visible.

[Olavur Christiansen (olavur)]

I checked all settings and it should have been visible.
Anyway it was a small board and I had not routed any traces, so I deleted the layout and started again. This time I had no problems viewing the components flipped to back side.
