Assuming it's a single or two layer board, it's certainly doable...but it may not be easy. If it has internal layers, it's extremely difficult and maybe impossible.A circuit with no info and no schematic, while I have the board in front of me (power supply) It's hard because I never tried to do it by tracing all over the place, plus most of the smaller stuff is all SMD stuff.
Is it doable?
Hello tracecom, any simple way of " . . . making one of them semi-transparent. . ."Assuming it's a single or two layer board, it's certainly doable...but it may not be easy. If it has internal layers, it's extremely difficult and maybe impossible.
Is it single or double sided? If so, there is a trick which involves taking photos of both sides of the board from the same distance and perspective, then reversing one of the photos, making one of them semi-transparent, and then pasting it over the other one. Thus, you can see all the tracks and components at one time. Better than flipping the board over and over and over.
