Mirror Gerber X2
« on: March 09, 2024, 05:02:41 am »
Greetings dear intelligent community!, I am working on a double layer PCB project, to manufacture a prototype with my mini CNC3018 machine I must generate the Gerber files of the top layer and bottom layer. I have had good results with the "Gerber X2" format
", I have enabled the "UI.Unification.GerberDialog.ShowMirrorColumn" checkbox in the system preferences to enable the gerber mirror option. I can indeed use the mirror option in the Gerber format, but in the Gerber X2 format it is not enabled. I must to enable the mirror in the bottom layer and I would like to use the X2 format, could someone help me, I attach some screenshots of the program! Thanks in advance!.

You should not need to use Gerber X2 extensions for PCB milling.
You should also be able to mirror the bottom layer of the PCB pretty easily in most Gerber to G-code processors.

You are right, I have managed to make the mirror with my G code editor, I use flatcam. Topic resolved.
