Merge Layer-Purpose Pairs on Two Layers (2-to-1)

For designs that represent colored data by overlapping the metal shapes on one layer-purpose pair with precoloring markers on another layer-purpose pair, use mptMarkersToMaskColors. From the layout view, the marker and drawing layer will be merged into one drawing layer through the hierarchy.

If XStream is used to translate data of this type, the precoloring markers will be converted but the covered metal layer shapes will remain.

For details on using this function, refer to mptMarkersToMaskColors.
