Hello,
I'm having an issue that may sound stupid but is burning the remaing hairs I have
.
I want to design a single stencil with location holes, top and bottom side components to use on a new board I'm working on.
The thing is that I can't figure out a way to create the stencil on Altium. I assume I need to create a new PCB document but I can't find a way to copy just the solder paste layers to the new document.
What I've tried so far
-> Generating gerbers and importing the solder paste layers to the new PCB, this sort of works but some pads disapeer (I have no idea why but happens with all QFNs) making the stencil pretty much useless
-> Trying to select the shapes of the solder paste on the original document and copy them. Altium doesn't let me select just the solder paste, just the entire pad
-> Trying to create a panel hoping to merge the top and bottom paste somehow, but I couldn't figure out a way to do it.
What is the correct way to solve this issue? How would you guys do it? Any sugestions?
