I have this weird problem where the pads for through-hole components and vias are not showing on the top layer. They do show on the bottom layer however. Surface mount pads are shown ok. I have a split/mixed plane on the top layer. I made sure that the "Pads" and "Vias" checkbox in the Display Colors are checked. Also I double checked the pad stacks and they are fine.

However when I create the gerber files, the pads are there.

Does anybody know how to get the pads to show again?

Thanks!
 

Try typing " L1 enter "or
L2 enter for 2 layer pcb
If a different layer is active, such as slik then pads may not show.
