Hi,
When I am routing air wires from a via, sometimes I get a yellow 'X'
that doesn't disappear unless I rip up the trace and reroute. Is there
a way to get rid of these some other way?
cheers,
Jamie

When routing from a
via
I think eagle should use the currently selected routing layer as well.
When I route from a via it always does use the selected layer.
Furthermore, if I don't want that I can swap layers during routing and
not get an extra via. Indeed, if I have a track that runs along the
bottom to a via, then the top to another via, then back to bottom, I can
"Change layer" on the middle section and both vias completely vanish.
Perhaps you need to zoom right in and see if there's actually a very
tiny unwanted track on your via. That could cause the sort of bad
behaviour you see.
