Hello,

For reasons of documentation (creating drawings with component placement
and connection references etcetera), I'd like to have a PNG image of a
PCB with the silk screen and the pins/pads showing, but not the rest of
the copper (tracks and polygons) -- so in essence the view you get
on-screen with all the copper layers switched off.

Unfortunately, when I turn all layer visibility off and select
'as-shown' in the PNG Export dialog, pins and pads no longer show up in
the PNG image, even though they do show on-screen.

Is there a way to have just the silk screen, pins and pads showing? Or
is this not possible?

Thanks for any suggestions,

Best regards,

Richard Rasker
