This should blow them up nicely: ![]() Perhaps I misunderstand what you want to do, but in breadboard you can only look down from the top of the board (I had assumed you wanted to flip the board so you are looking at the bottom side which Fritzing won’t do.) The board above appears to have been created as a custom part with a different color used for the bottom layer on one strip. There aren’t actually two layers in the drawing, a wire connected to the B strip in breadboard will be the same as a wire connected to an A strip, the different color of the trace is the only difference that makes it appear to be two layers, Fritzing only recognizes one layer in breadboard. Yes that looks to be correct in this case (although this strip board looks to be a custom part to do that, the standard strip board won’t do this). Here the “A” part is the botom (printed circuit board side)Īnd the “B” part, the top (component side)
