Eagle crashes when mirroring schematic symbol

I am using win XP and v6 lite (currently v6.0.2 beta) and have nothing but

trouble. Probably my worst problem is that Eagle crashes when I mirror a

symbol that is connected directly to ground.

 

If I have a vertically oriented symbol touching a ground symbol, then select

the symbol (L-click), middle click to mirror, then L-click again to

de-select, Eagle crashes immediately.

 

Also, if the  component touching a ground, all I have to do is to click the

mirror icon then click the component, and Eagle crashes immediately.

 

So far, I see this happening for verticle resistors, capacitors, and diodes.

All I need to create the problem is one ground and one other schematic

symbol.

 

Does anybody else see this happening and can anybody tell me what to do

about it - besides never mirroring any vertically oriented component that

touches a ground symbol?

Hi Brett,

Upgrade to V6.1.It's the latest bugfix release and has many corrections.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,

Am I missing something here.

A  release (6.1) should be the functionally the same as the last beta which

was 6.0.2

Hi Brett,

I have forwarded the issue to our developers I can recreate it here.
