Hi, I would think it is in a padstack in the brd. I would look at my padstacks and remove it from the padstack and Update the brd. You can't remove it from the subclass list like a custom layer. You would have to remove it from the padstack.

Hi, I hope this isn't a stupid question... I am having a real issue removing a non-conductor pad stack layer called COVERLAY from a board database. I did not create the database, so I don't know how that pad stack layer got created. Now that I able to create a COVERLAY_TOP and COVERLAY_BOTTOM to the source pad stack, I really need to delete COVERLAY. [cid:image001.png@01CD21F3.5CD64C10] Thanks, Chris
