Favourite EAGLE 5 Feature

autodeskguest over 14 years ago

Hello everyone,

Now that most of us have had a chance to play with EAGLE 5 for awhile,

what are your favorite new features?

I'll start with a short list of what I use most or saves me the most

time:

1) attributes -- no longer need external database for bom info, etc.

Schematic is now the master of all design data.

2) frames/xref label -- great assistance in navigating printed schematic

and finding connection issues. A few suggestions to improving it further,

but very handy.

3) locking components in PCB -- helps one from shooting oneself in the

foot.

4) replace in schematic -- this has saved me a lot of time already.

Finally a way to change the library reference in a part to a new library.

I'm probably missing some.

Cheers,

James.
