configurable colors for copper pours

[Martin Johnson]

I agree that layer transparency and also the ability to change colour of copper pours would be useful as well

On the subject of transparency; I have really wanted to see layer transparency in DipTrace; It gets really awkward when you have a lot of layers continually having to turn various layers on / off to see what's underneath and transparency would help a lot with productivity.

Objects, "clear all copper pours" and "update all copper pours" might help.
I'm not sure colors/transparency would be a big improvement.
The more layers with pours, the more transparent pours hide other objects in transparent view mode.

corr. The more layers with pours, the more semi-transparent pours hide other objects in transparent view mode.

+1 on layer Transparency, it would be nice to see my traces on the other side of my pour.

I would rather go with hatched and dot patterns for copper pour instead of solid color.

This would be a huge plus for 4+ layer pcbs with complex power / ground planes when determining where to place vias. Currently working on a 6 layer board and I have to franticly cycle through all the layers to determine best via placement....

This is like dashed lines and such, asked for but not implemented.

What like this?
-Do your copper pour
-Add a trace to it
-Right click on the trace -> trace colour
-Choose another colour

Indeed, it would be nice to change color an opacity of the layers.

Also nice would be to set a specific Copper Pour color! That would help a lot when routung!

Is it better to change the layer color or to change the configurable colors for copper points?
