Replace Part

When using the "Replace Part" function, return to the last part selected instead of the first part in the drop down menu header. It would save a lot scrolling down when replacing multiple identical parts.

Re: Patterns should NOT be tied to schematics!

I'm definitely late to this party. But I'm still frustrated. I changed a few parts in the schematic with different patterns (size constraints) and updated the board from the schematic. The new parts are listed in the design manager window in the schematic and on the board, but when I try to export t...

Mirroring a section of a schemaic.

If I highlight a section of a schematic how do I mirror that section of the schematic that contains multiple components?
The flip command only does individual components or flips all the highlighted components in the schematic section.
This would be a very helpful utility.

The New Library Management System SUCKS!!!

The subject line says it all... When I create a new user component it seems that I can't save it in the project library under any name but "library". Once saved as "library" it is impossible to rename it, unless I'm missing something obvious. The net result is that I have a bunch...

Eagle to Diptrace conversion problem

I downloaded and installed as a demo the latest Eagle (7.3.0) and converted the board as per the Diptrace instructions using the Eagle to Diptrace conversion ULP. When I imported...

Rotate component ref designation won't work in Windows 8

I just purchased a new Toshiba Laptop with Windows 8. What a miserable piece of shit! (WINDOWS 8 that is- Not the laptop) What I discovered is that after I highlight a component and press F10 to move and/or rotate a component reference designation I can move the component ref. designation by clickin...

Copper layer Merge in 2.4.0.1

Hi all,
I'm trying to merge two different copper layers onto one but can not seem to find any utility with the function or ability to do so.
Am I missing something?
Is the ability there?

Thanks in advance for any and all replies...
