    Hello,

     

    I wanted to solve this problem:

     

    http://www.eaglecentral.ca/forums/index.php/mv/msg/45092/140099/

     

    with one simple ULP which will create a directory first and then rund the

    saved CAM Job. I would implement it in the text menu in eagle as button

    with different options for different CAM Jobs, but then I found next

    barier, that is not possible to run the CAM Job from ULP. It would be nice,

    if it will be solved in next versions (CAM Command in Editor and

    possibility to create directory directly from eagle).

     

    I would have also some other ideas for new versions:

     

    1) it would be nice if the layer for texts >NAME and >VALUE would be set

    automatically(sch: Nr.: 95,96; brd: Nr.: 25,27 )

     

    2) it would be helpful if I could in settings set defauld grid for BOARD

    command/button and set the units (global) to mm or inch

     

    3) also visibility of pads names in schematic could be helpfull, same thing

    as layout editor has in settings (Display Pad Names)

     

    Thanks for your answer/comments

     

    Tom
