Maybe something stupid, but I have an issue.
When I load a board (all OK), then I "Add Tracks", almost everything is shown: text on copper layers isn't showing. Am I missing something?
The same happened with a KiCad part that I designed for a logo, with a drawing just on copper layer.

Copper text ATM is not imported as solid traces by ksu (it is simply skipped)…
my suggestion ATM is to replicate your text item to silk screen and import it as per the silks screen method.

When importing traces onto my import PCB board, the vias are not importing correctly. The main issue has been that the traces appear, but there are no vias through the PCB. When importing my board, I am just supposed to click the import board button and then the import traces button right?
