How to delete board?

peterloron

I have drawn a schematic with the freeware v5.1. There were some

mistakes there. When I first generated the board from the schematic,

those errors caused a bunch of bad connections on the board layout.

 

How can I completely delete the board and regenerate it from scratch?

 

Thanks!

  • right click on board name in Control Panel, and Delete...

    Hi Pete.

     

    Close the window the board is in and go into Explorer and delete the

    .brd file. This will let you make a new board when you switch from

    schematic to board in the board editor.

     

    You can also do this from the Eagle Control Panel after you close the

    window the board is in. Select the board file, then right click on it to

    see the delete function.

    You don't really need to delete the board. Just correct your schematic.

    The connections on the board will follow your changes.

     

    If you want to freshly start routing, simply RIPUP the whole board.
