Re: Text module in legacy plugin

Found this in loadMODULE_TEXT:

     if( layer < FIRST_LAYER )
         layer = FIRST_LAYER;
     else if( layer > LAST_NON_COPPER_LAYER )
         layer = LAST_NON_COPPER_LAYER;
     else if( layer == LAYER_N_BACK )
         layer = SILKSCREEN_N_BACK;
     else if( layer == LAYER_N_FRONT )
         layer = SILKSCREEN_N_FRONT;

(didn't check if it's the same for the new format)

Is there a reason for not allowing text on front and back copper?
It can be useful for layer coupons or even some silkless board.

Yes: DRC does not check texts and other graphic items.
