Obscure Eagle

What?

The intent here is to list tips and tricks that are not apparent ( maybe just easily or commonly missed ) from the standard documents and tutorials on Eagle. We need contributions, this is just a start.

Start

Re-Run Auto

I like to run auto when it does not finish at 100% I route some stuff on top, or bottom. then run auto again and it will tell how close to 100% you are. You can also unroute a few wires and then re auto route them

Hide the top layer

After I manually route on the top layer I sometimes want to rerun the autorouter. By hiding the top layer and then ripping up ever;ything you leave you top layer in place. Show it again and it will remind you wher to do the manual routing, and you only have to redo the bottom.
