gEDA-user: Layer inversion

[John Coppens]

Hi all...

I use PCB irregularly, mostly with all the defaults in place. Today, I
was drawing a board where I wanted to add a text on the solder side. I've
done that a lot of times, each time with the text mirrored, and never
bothered to check why.

Today the threshold was reached and I searched on the net, and found DJ's
note on the assignment of layers to groups. Solved...

But - I had never even seen that window before, much less changed it, so
how did this happen? Is there some logic for having the components
assigned to solder side and vice versa, by default?
