Board routing question re. ratsnest

autodeskguest

 

Dear All,

 

I am currently routing a 2 layer board and have run into a problem to which

I am sure there must be a solution.

 

Basically, I have a few signals remaining to be routed. One of these has a

clear path and routing would be simple were it not for one inconvenient

problem; Eagle doesn't seem to want to let me route it that way. I tried

regenerating the ratsnest but that didn't work. What I need to do is force

Eagle to understand that I want to route differently, or just force a manual

route in some way.

 

The solution to this, surely, has to be extremely simple! Can someone give

me some pointers?

 

Thanks

    The ROUTE command offers several options with the different mouse

    buttons, also in combination with the Ctrl and Shift key.

     

      Ctrl + Left      starts routing at any given point along a wire or via

      Shift + Left     if the airwire begins at an already existing wire and

                       this wire has a different width, the new wire adopts

                       this width 

      Center           selects the layer

      Right            changes the wire bend style

      Shift +Right     reverses the direction of switching bend styles

      Ctrl + Right     toggles between corresponding bend styles

      Shift + Left     places a via at the end point of the wire

      Ctrl + Left      defines arc radius when placing a wire's end point

     

     

    I think Ctrl + Left will solve your problem.....
