Accessing Layer Stackup in Altium 365

Now you can access the PCB Layer Stackup in Altium 365 Web Viewer. There are three ways to work with the Layer Stackup associated with your project: Work in Progress Design, Releases, and Manufacturing:

The feature is available through Altium 365 Workspace browser interface.

Through the Info Icon info. You can find general information about the board by clicking the info icon in the top-right corner:

Open a project in Altium 365 Workspace.

Select Design > Name_of_the_Project.PcbDoc on the Project Pane, which appears on the left side of the editor (or click on ‘PCB’ in the top bar above the design).

Click the Info Icon infoin the top-right corner (it looks like a lowercase letter inside a circle).

Click Board Info. The dialog box will display the Board Size, Layers, Components, and Nets. Click Stackup View; the text will be highlighted in blue.

Through the Layers Panel. You can adjust all of the PCB layer-related information by clicking on this icon (Layers): Layer

Open a project in Altium 365 Workspace.

In the top-left corner of the editor, hover the mouse over the icon (Layers) . You will also see two sets of numbers separated by a slash (/). Click on it.

The first number of the set represents the number of visible layers, and the second number represents the total number of layers. To change the visibility of a layer, click over the layer once. An eye hide icon will appear in gray; this means the layer is not visible.

Click Stackup View; it will be highlighted in blue.
