Re: GerbView: KiCad-rc2: Layer filenames mixed up in right tab view.

 

Hi, Jon!

The files are newly generated proprietary %FSDAX33Y33*% (without X2 attributes AFAICT).
*
*
G04 PADS VX.1.2 Build Number: 698008 generated Gerber (RS-274-X) file*
G04 PC Version=2.1*
*
%IN "xxxxxxxx.pcb"*%
*
%MOMM*%
*
%FSDAX33Y33*%
*
...

I opened from a directory by File - Load Gerber File... - Shift-Clicking on the files in the order I want to load them - Open.

(I need to click #no of file times to dismiss the warning dialog box because of the proprietary format "%FSDAX33Y33*%", which is annoying, btw.)

Regards,

Clemens
