Eagle layers reference for review

shabaz
shabaz over 15 years ago

Hi,

 

Attached is a short doc on Eagle layers.. I did this because I keep forgetting them if I don't use it

for a few months.

 

Feel free to edit/etc. It could be a useful reference.

 

Thanks!

 

EDIT: doc is at http://s291354402.websitehome.co.uk/EAGLE%20CAD%20layers%20reference2.zip

due to download problems.

    Hi,

     

    Sorry not sure why it was not visible. Anyway, I've put it

    temporarily at this location for someone to post it properly.

    .................

     

    The reason for the uploaded file not appearing in the newsgroup or

    subsequently at EagleCentral is an issue at Element14.

    They have yet to make it work. So many months have passed since this was

    flagged that I don't expect it will be fixed.

    If you wish to upload files do it at EagleCentral or directly at the

    NewsGroup.

    The reason for the doc was that layers are so important to understand,

    that a doc focussed on it was the best way to share this info. With

    layers knowledge it speeds up board and component design so much.

     

    But what's in your document that isn't in HELP LAYERS?

    The attachement didn't make over here to the Eagle Central forums, but

    what's the point?  Is there anything in your documentation that you don't

    get by doing HELP LAYER?  That's the normal way to see what layers are used

    for what.
