What's Good About Allegro PCB Editor Smart Layer Behavior for Add Connect? It’s in the 16.6 Release!

When using the Add Connect command in the 16.6 Allegro PCB Editor , the active layer field will now automatically synchronize to that of a single visible layer. Previously, any visibility adjustment to limit the display to a single etch layer would typically require an additional adjustment to the active layer setting. Invoke the ‘Add Connect’ command. Disable the visibility of all etch layers: Enable the visibility of only one layer noting the active layer behavior in the top section of the options form (single-layer synchronization): Please share your experiences using this new capability.
