Copper Fill - HELP!

Hello. I created and received my PCB. However, the circular areas that I want covered in copper were not correct. I am looking to make 3 rings that are exposed that can make contact with POGO spring connectors for fast connect and disconnect. When I received the board, the rings are not exposed and are not conductive. There is no copper fill on the rings. Any suggestions on what I need to change? ![POGO-Pad.jpg](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/I2250NP6X0lmkAFYJNXDl4ikDEmuo6ukceSUaw8q.jpeg) ![20180820_180312.jpg](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/cECLQBcHGNWNGhxoUbUzVValvNsEspA1M7JEKZSa.jpeg)

[https://docs.easyeda.com/en/FAQ/Editor/index.html#How-to-add-solder-mask](https://docs.easyeda.com/en/FAQ/Editor/index.html#How-to-add-solder-mask) solder mask should add to copper area or track. You just have solder mask, no copper.

@dillon I am confused. Step 2 states: "Next, draw a region in the solder mask layer over a copper item as illustrated in the image below." What do I draw a region with? Do I copy and paste my ARC circles into a different layer? In the image, the red arrow is pointing to the "TopSolderLayer". I do not see the TopSolderLayer in the layers settings. Thanks.

@RAGE_Sonix, Draw your copper tracks/shapes as normal then select the tracks that you want exposed and then click the **Create Solder Mask** button: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/6p4yGf4zucy3SljzNetv73GEYqGhU5cNOtpHEkD4.png) and that will automatically remove the solder mask in the required area: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/n5a7eL9uVwOHXcMeXffgBtvxvjB7xyP0g3dkDt4z.png) You can CTRL+left-click to include more tracks in your selection. Note that component pads will already be exposed so you don't need to include them.
