What is the new COMPOSITE feature for the JOB Array?

We have added a new Matrix feature to the JOB Array called "COMPOSITE".  Its similar to the existing LAYER feature, however COMPOSITE allows you to merge multiple files into a single layer; you can assign whether the merging file will be Dark or Clear, and even add a Size value (should you wish to enlarge or reduce object sizes). 



Here's more specific information about the new COMPOSITE feature for the JOB Array:


##############################

# COMPOSITE (Merge multiple files to one layer)

##############################

#COMPOSITE=layer,layer_polarity,file,contrast,size,file(n),contrast(n),size(n),(...)

#layer_polarity=[positive negative]

#file=[file path of Gerber/Drill - may be relative or absolute]

#contrast=[Dark Clear]

#size=[Any value to enlarge or reduce, Zero is the default]

# Repeat "file(n),contrast(n),size(n)" for as many files need to be merged.  Composites are merged in the order of first file, second, etc.
