Updating Board view after adding component to Schematic view

autodeskguest

I added a component on my Schematic but couldn't figure out how to refresh

my Board to show the newly added component. How is this done?

 

Thanks.

    Thanks for your feedback, I will make sure to keep both my schematic and

    board views open at all times.

     

    And as a helpful hint that you should do this, Eagle will always open

    both if they both exist. So if you open "myProject.sch" and there is a

    "myProject.brd" in the same directory, the board editor will be opened

    automatically (but minimised).

     

    True.  The catch comes if you then close one of them, because the other

    will stay open, and you can make a change without both being open.

    If you close one file, it is safest to close both so you are not tempted

    to make changes on one file only.

    When closing a file, I'd prefer that EAGLE automatically close the

    "other" file, or at least, ask the user if he wants to close the "other"

    file.
