OSX - Mavericks - objects not displayed while moving

Hey Nelson,

this is a 'known bug' on OS X. A workaround is to switch to another application with CMD+TAB and then back to Eagle, again with CMD+TAB.

Best regards,

Lieven.

Hi Lieven,

Thank you for the update. Is this problem solved in EAGLE v7.x?

Hey Anders,

no, I'm afraid it is not solved in v7.x.

Best regards,

Lieven.

We're working on it though. We have a few Mac Issues we're clearing up now.

Hi Jorge,

I'm glad to hear this is being worked on because it's a blocking problem to my development and surely others'.

My license is for EAGLE 6.60 - will I receive a patch that will fix this problem in 6.60?

Hi Anders,

Unfortunately, any improvement will be applied to V7. We generally don't

do any developement work on previous version of EAGLE.

hth,

Jorge Garcia

Understood. Will I be provided an upgrade when this problem is solved?

Jorge,

nice to hear that. Looking forward to the change log of the next Eagle update!

Best regards,

Lieven.

Nice try

Ha, It's a serious question actually.

If I paid several hundred dollars for an upgrade to a system that I can't use then I'll find an alternative program to work with. I don't mind not having the latest features, but what I pay for must operate as described when I buy it.

I'll give you guys a call soon and we can talk about the available options.

I agree with this sentiment.

Cadsoft has a habit of stopping support for the current version when a

new version is released and before the new version is any good. A good

proportion of other vendors support the current version (twilight) for a

period that is stated up front or until the new version is stable.

There are issues with v6 that go beyond what society and the software

industry accepts as bugs and gets to the point of not delivering

advertised functionality. Functionality described in the documentation.

  I'm  surprised there was not a Class action initiated, particularly in

the early months of v6? It could happen now with the bungled release of

v7 with the hierarchical functionality only delivering half of the

normal expectation.

When v6 was released it was so obviously premature and bug riddled that

I forecast it would be 6.5 before it was stable. That turned out to be

correct. During this time bugs were still being logged for v5. A few

were fixed then but the cutoff came well before v6 was any good. From

the number of issues people were reporting I even posted that I was not

even going to bother reviewing it and reporting issues I found. Why

waste my time if Cadsoft did not invest time in to create an even half

quality product before releasing it. Then Jorge posted back saying that

I should so that others would benefit. There it was again, Cadsoft

leaving it up to the customers to do the testing for them.

Really, I feel sad for those who have outlaid money for v7. I hope it

works well for you in the end.
