[sdiy] Building on Pad Per Hole?

[Rude 66]

looking at the program now. for me this is also an interesting solution,
because i have a hell of a time converting schematics to a board layout.
one thing i don't understand about the program: all the examples show
'normal' boards, i.e. with copper connections on the back. how do you make
it show the result on pad per hole board? i'm obviously missing something..
