Copper Area only possible on one layer or it`s a bug?

Im designing a 4-layer board and need to have one of the layers as GND copper area, second Signal GND copper area on another layer and third layer with Vcc copper area. Currently, in Copper Area Manager i can BOT set more than one Copper Area for the entire board. Im not sure if this function ever existed or it`s under development, but at the bottom of the Copper Area Manager window there are buttons MOVE UP and MOVE DOWN for multiple copper areas.Similar to other menus in EasySDA, there should be a green "+" button at the end of the first line, so that more lines could be added for multiple copper areas. The "+" button is not there and there is no other way to set a second or multiple copper areas. Of course, i did select 4-layers in the Layer Manager. I also tried selecting 6 layer PCB to see if that will allow for more of one copper area, but no. Is this a bug, is it an option under development or it will never be there?

From your description, it is not clear what the problem may be. Please make a project that demonstrates this issue publically available.

If you define an inner layer as Plane then you cannot draw a Copper Area on it. You can only place Copper Areas on the Top or Bottom layers. If you define an inner layer as Signal then you can draw a Copper Area on it. You can also place Copper Areas on the Top or Bottom layers. ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/uNN7rfW0b0Xf6rNr62D8qy3uckYUE2KrDvQutdj2.png) ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/snxoccaA2bOHmfMipKQH9M4tBI4ys90zCI7rFBh4.png) If you then name the Copper Area on the inner layer, it will appear in the Copper Area Manager: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/hY6CO5qCfqYMN6HQc3jIyD9qypGz9UHRAa70pU6F.png)

@andyfierman Layers weren`t defined as Plain. But i figured it out. One must go to the drop-down menu and select each of the layers individually. the software would only fill in with copper the selected layer. No option to group and select all layers at once in existence. That kinda makes sense for those who are only filling in one layer.
