If you mean 'physical layer' by 'composite', than yes. Each of those
will have it's 'outline' layer.

But I didn't wanted to have the 'hole' here, but now I don't see why.
We can probably do that.

The problem here is: How to recognice board 'outline' from cutouts?

I don't want to draw the actual 'outline' to all physical layers if it
is the same. So I cannot take 'the biggest one' as outline.
