Eagle licensing, offline use

autodeskguest

Is it possible to use Eagle 8 offline (not connected to internet) at all?

 

I just tried with the free license and it seems to require connection.  How is

it with a paid subscription?

 

There are times when one is not connected and still would like to make some

editing, or even viewing of eagle files.

    It is required that you be online at least the first time you launch

    EAGLE.  At this time, enter your login details.  After that, you can go

    offline up to 14 days.

    I decided to try myself and purchase a $15 subscription.  Well, it seems

    impossible because I am in Finland.  Billing address page requires US address.

    How am I supposed to proceed?

    Apparently one must go to autodesk.eu page and subscribe from there.  Stupid.

    After all, when one gets forwarded from cadsoft.de to autodesk.com and not be

    asked where he resides, that should be asked later and not just allow to subscribe.

     

    Now waiting for export screening!

     

    I seriously think starting to use KiCad.  New subscription only approach is not

    suitable for me as I am a hobbyist and now suddenly have to pay 545 euro per

    year instead of about 100 euro to be able to design 4-layer boards.

     

    It was fun as long as it lasted!
