Seems silly, but I do not see a way to assign a net name to an internal layer.
I also need to make 3 separate polygons on the power plane which will have different net names. The CS documentation doesn't cover this. I was able to make 4 layer board in the layer stack manager - but no net names, and not a lot of options there.
anyone doing 4 or more layer boards in CS?
Found the net name under the object inspector. You can use the Filters to help show which layer is selected. Then if you click the Ground Plane tab at the bottom of the PCB editor, you can then click anywhere on the layer. in the object inspector you'll get this:
here i've drawn a fill on the power plane. I am trying to asign it to a net name using the object inspector, or by double clicking on the fill and selecting a net name. every time i select a net name it automatically puts the field back to 'No Net'
Here i tried to put a polygon fill on a different layer, set it to a net name, then change the layer to internal power - CS crashed
I've got it figured out. you can draw a Line. if it sections off a portion of the existing internal layer, it will cut the polygon. you can then select a different Net Name if you click on the sectioned off polygon. Here the main layer is 3v, now this new sectioned portion is 5v.
the documentation on this is non-existent, and its not too obvious.
in addition to that, the software had many crashes using the PCB inspector and so on - not great. but at least it seems i have it sorted for the time being.
