After importing some gerbers I notice some white phantom graphics in the background. I have found that changing the name of layer, Board_Outline, to BO the phantom graphics goes away. What is going on?

Thanks for your feedback.

The phantom graphics is FAB 3000 attempting to display a PCB profile (in the background) for your reference. In ODB++/2581 the border profile is clearly defined. In Gerber files "anything goes" for border layer. https://support.numericalinnovations.com/support/discussions/topics/14000019241

To disable the Profile/Outline view, uncheck menu: View | Outline/Profile, and it will disappear.
