Next, you view the thickness and types of layers.
You can view properties of any entity in the CircuitWorks tree by right-clicking the entity and clicking Properties.
-
In the CircuitWorks tree, expand Layers
.
The listed layers are distinguished by their dielectric 
or conductor 
property.
The layers of the circuit board are stacked, back-to-back, starting with the first layer at the bottom of the board. The distance from the first layer to the last layer determines the board thickness. The layers can have different heights.
- Right-click a conductor layer and click Properties.
Properties including the following are displayed:
|
Start Height
|
Specifies the height of the bottom of the layer relative to the bottom of the board.
|
|
End Height
|
Specifies the height of the top of the layer relative to the bottom of the board. The end height of one layer is the same as the start height of the next layer
|
|
Thickness
|
Specifies the thickness of the layer.
|
- Select other layers and view the properties.
- In the CircuitWorks tree, click Board Outlines.
Board Properties appears. The board thickness, 0.7870 mm, is the sum of the layer thicknesses.
