P-CAD ASCII import missing last inner layer
Description
I have prepared a sample file PCAD-6L.pcb
that is problematic in this strange way, which only happens with mentor exports
Currently KiCAD will place what normally be Inner1 on Inner2; and so on with final Inner4 being lost on import
Simply moving layerDef "BOTTOM"
below inner layers in the text file makes KiCAD import all layers. Following is a file after such operation
CAUTION: How actual order of layers is determined/specified is something I didn't figure out yet, but I'm getting hunch that mentor is somehow messing up the order.
