"disable" or "comment out" components

autodeskguest

  Is there a way to "comment out" or disable certain parts in eagle, so

they would still appear in the schematic, but not on the board?

    Thanks everybody for their input.  There are definitely ways of kinda

    doing it, like that frames library (which I haven't heard of until now.)

    but it's still not exactly what I was looking for.

     

    Even though each section is connected to the rest of the circuit, it

    would be nice to disable and re-enable components for easier laying out

    and routing.  What I ended up doing in the particular board I was

    working on, was make every schematic 'section' a different eagle file,

    and then import and route the other sections one by one.

     

    So, Cadsoft: I've got a feature request for you.  Maybe we can see this

    ability in future versions...  How 'bout it?  Maybe?
