DipTrace

autodeskguest

Does anyone have some experience with DipTrace?

 

Now that Eagle became a subscription service, from our point of

view it's dead. While the last version we have is still running fine,

obviously we'd like to explore other moderately priced commercial

quality options for the future. We don't do Windows and don't want to

run Wine either which severely limits our choices.

 

One possibility would be DipTrace, which on the surface seems to do

everything that Eagle can do and it's pricetag is at the same league.

 

So I just wonder whether someone had some experience with it and could

compare it to Eagle, pros/cons, better at this, worse at that style?

 

Thanks,

 

Zoltan

    Yeah, funny.

     

    or E-Z Circuit by Bishop Graphics?

     

    I was more of a Letraset man.

    Then OrCAD on DOS with a whopping 72dpi Epson dot-matrix printer.

     

    Of those I really miss the DOS OrCAD's schematics editor, the most

    useful(!) feature rich schematics entry I've ever worked width. Then

    they moved to Windows and replaced the useful features with useless

    eye-candy.

     

    Alas, reminiscing about the good old days of spray-on photoresin and

    UV lamp and acetone or the iron-trichloride bath at the corner of the

    workbench and whatnot can't really help me finding an Eagle replacement

    for Linux or Mac, can it image

     

    But thanks anyway.
