drillegend troubles

fritzz

I am tryng to use the drillegend-2.ulp and am getting a weird result.

 

It looks like when I look at layer 144 that the drills are in the right place, but the table below shows them MUCH too large.

It shows drills are 26mm, 32mm, 33mm, and 126mm. I don't think my drills are that big.

 

Help! Do I need to do something before running this?

 

Is there a betetr way to check my drills locations/sizes?

  • I saw a message now from a year ago implying that maybe this is bug and that 6.2 does not work with this ULP.

    From the ULPs that are included with 6.2.2 try drillegend-stack.ulp

    Each and every ULP is coded with a version of Eagle in mind. Many are not

    backwards compatible and many inform you about this when you attempt to run

    them in an older version. Not all do.

     

    The assumption to date was that they would all be forwards compatible. With

    the arrival of v6 that all went out the window due to the use of different

    internal units used by v6. This trips up some of the older ULPs as they

    perform calculations based on the internal unit size of the earlier

    versions. So now we need to accept that there are v5 ULPs that will work in

    v6 but there are also v5 ULPs that won't.

     

    If you are using ULPs  other than those included with your version of Eagle

    you should be wary of them giving incorrect results.
