No—Quilter does not currently handle or optimize silkscreen placement. While component placements include associated silkscreen outlines, Quilter does not automatically resolve silkscreen overlaps or positioning issues.
When Quilter places components, it maintains the same relative position of the silkscreen reference designators, which can sometimes lead to silkscreen collisions.
After Quilter generates the PCB layout, you may need to manually adjust silkscreen markings within your ECAD tool to ensure readability, compliance, and manufacturability. Improved silkscreen handling is planned for future updates but isn’t available today.
