I am trying to edit an existing surface mount package. I cannot see the pads on the edit screen. I can get the text etc by enabling display pins. If I select a pin it shows in 'selected' colour but disappears when I unselect it. I have tried various display colour settings including changing background colour. This only occurs with surface mount devices and it only occurs when attempting to change an existing package. Is there a setting hidden somewhere that will allow me to see the pins?
*** After discussion with support - it appears that this is a Technology file issue - missing 'Top layer' in Layers tab.
Cannot see SMT pads
