Bug Description
In the Footprint Editor, the layers Dwgs.User, Cmts.User, Eco1.User, Eco2.User are grayed out, so it’s impossible to add comments (text) or draw zones (with graphic lines or polygons) on these layers to define a keepout area for example. Consequently, a footprint designer like me have to choose another layer and change it after, by the the intermediary of the properties dialog box (or with an external text editor). why not let the choice to use these 4 layers to the footprint designer ?
