Problems with Eagle since upgrading to OS 10.9

JHV3

Hello all,

 

Has anyone encountered and or found a fix for Eagle instability in Mavericks?

Two things are happening consistently:

- The move tool in schematic capture no longer shows the part/line/item etc in motion (screen is not updated with mouse moves). The instance simple drops at the cursor whenever you click.

- The program crashes when trying to add libraries to use.

 

I thought a fresh install may help but I get this:

Anyone have any ideas?

 

Thank you in advance!

    I can confirm this happens to me too.  If you switch to another window

    (CMD+tab) and then switch back, the display is updated and works as normal.

    It's annoying and should be fixed, but switching windows gets you going

    now.

    That one I can't reproduce.  How are you adding libraries to be used?

     

    Cheers,

     

    James.

    James,

     

    Thank you very much for the tip using CMD+tab. What a relief!

     

    As far as the "use" library menu crashing the system, since the original post I think it may have been a compatibility issues with the specific .sch file I was using (it was created on a PC using an earlier release, not sure which one yet).

     

    After creating a new file and redrawing the .sch I've had not problem adding libraries to be used.

     

    Thank you again James! You've been very helpful.
