Chad,

Okay, here's what I did. As you suggested, I used the unused "signal2" 
layer to create a box around the board edge and kept it turned on with 
the "component" and "solder" layers turned off. In the PNG dialog, I 
checked the "screen-layout-order" option and that gave me what I want - 
silkscreen, pins, and outline. If I leave the "screen-layout-order" 
option unchecked and nothing else changed, then I get everything again - 
traces from both sides and all.

So, I thank you for your work-around and I can continue my work wile you 
get it sorted out. I will look into posting a bug report ASAP.

Thanks Again.
Girvin

            <p>Chad &amp; DJ,</p>
            <p>Thanks for your prompt response.<br>
            </p>
            <p>Yes, I have "Only-visible" checked in the PNG dialog.
              That was the first thing I did, since the prompt
              specifically said "...visible items...", which implies
              visible on the screen.<br>
            </p>
            <p>I thought I did this before, but my notes from then say
              to enable "Component" side to get pads. Otherwise will
              only get silkscreen. Sounds familiar. However, that board
              was a single-sided board, so it didn't matter, since there
              were no traces on the Component side. This new board is a
              double-sided board. I just checked and exporting with
              "Component" layer turned on will produce the top silk,
              pins and both component and solder layer traces, which
              still is not what I want. I don't want the traces for this
              export. According to the PNG file date on that
              single-sided board, it was February of 2015. So, this
              process was giving me problems that far back at least.<br>
            </p>
            <p>I have never used LaunchPad before or filed a bug report.
              How do I do that? Is there a process document I can read
              to do it? If so, where can I find it?</p>
