Resize PCB

Question

I need to reopen an old project with a PCB size of 80x80mm (i use the Light Edition ver. 7.1) and i want add some components.

After resize the Dimension in Layer 20 from 80x80 to 80x100 mm i try to move some compoennts in this new space

but i always get this BRD error:

The Light edition of EAGLE can't perform the requested action!

Some objects extend outside the allowed board area.

The PCB is two layer and the size is within the Light Edition limits, how can i go ahead from this situation ?

Thank You

The light edition limits are, I believe, 100x80mm. If you're trying to

make an 80x100mm board then it's outside those limits on the Y-axis. Try

rotating it to be "landscape" instead of "portrait".

HTH,
