Show legacy/missing layers?

Hello everyone. I have some legacy foot prints imported into Fusion; with the recent updates some of the layer names have changed, which is fine. The problem is I have labels in some footprints on layers that are no longer used (apparently). When I edit the footprint, I cannot see the labels, edit them, or delete them. But when I use the component in a PCB, the layer exists and I can see the label.  Specifically, I have pin labels on Layer 48 (Document) which I would like to delete in the footprint.

 

It's not causing any issues per se (except I can't delete them from the PCB for some reason), I just want to clean things up.  How can I "add" Layer 48 in the footprint editor and delete the labels?

 

Thanks.

 

-Tom

Hello @cyberreefguru,

 

I hope you're doing well. You can re-instate the layer in the library, by using the command line interface. In the CLI type 

 

Layer 48 Document

 

and press enter. Now you should be able to see it in the library editor.

 

Let me know if you continue to run into problems.

 

Best Regards,
