Hobbyist license: Missing available signal layers

zainka
zainka over 14 years ago

Hi

 

I just purchased the hobbyist license which according to Cadsoft.de has

it limits tied down to six signal layers on 100x160mm board. However, I

can only see top and bottom. I  guess the other layers visible should

have been Rout2, Rout3, Rout14 and Rout15 ??

 

When, in controlpanel, I go to "Help/About Eagle", I can see that I have

the hobbyist license under topic "Registered to" and the proforma says

so aswell, but "about eagle" also says "studen version" aswell. But i

know that I applied for an individual license, and not student.

 

This is what "about eagle" says:

***

Single User License ###MY LICENSE###

Student Version - NOT FOR COMMERCIAL USE!

 

Registered to:

HOBBYIST LICENSE

Vidar ... and so on

***

 

My proforma says "EAGLE-HOBBYIST 1User Standard V5"

Have I got the wrong license???

 

 

 

 

Best regards Vidar(Z)

    You have the correct license, but you have to introduce the layers

    for your layout.

     

    This is done in the layer setup where you tell EAGLE which layers

    your board shall consist of. Please check the settings in the

    Design Rules, Layers tab.

    For creating a 4 layer board, you can, for example, use the following

    setup:   (12+1516)

     

    More information in the manual about Multilayer boards.
