I recently sent a board that I designed in EasyEDA to manufacture, and one of the pads turned out to be covered in solder mask.
Is there any way to view the solder mask layer in EasyEDA?
Solder mask layers can be viewed using a Gerber file viewer such as gerbv:
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/gerbv/files/gerbv/gerbv-2.6.0/>
as suggested when you click on the **Fabrication Output...** button.
<https://easyeda.com/Doc/Tutorial/PCB.htm#GettingFabricationFiles>
Top and bottom solder mask layers are the .GTS and .GBS layers respectively in the Gerber files.
The actual error was entirely my fault. A custom part had its pads created as fill zones instead of true pads.
This is more of a feature request than a bug report, I suppose. If EasyEDA did show the solder mask like it shows the other layers (copper, silkscreen, etc) then I might have recognized my mistake earlier. Thanks for your time!
