    Eagle schematic showing error in connection

    It is a 7408 quad and gate(see my previous post). That is basically a standard part & available in eagle library. I tried by changing the grid. It is still showing the error. Regards, Y. Li

    [SOLVED] Ground plane in Eagle 6.3 Lite

    Hi, Pls. tell me how to make a ground plane in Eagle. I surrounded the PCB inside with top metal layer polygon. Then, renamed it to gnd. But I am not getting as a PCB as in: https://www.muzique.com/schem/eagle.htm Kept isolate to 0.6096 and spacing to 1.27 Pls. advice. Thanks, Y. Li

    [SOLVED] manual routing in eagle 6.3 lite

    Well, there were some tracks which were added on later (not from schematic). So while moving the components, these tracks remained in their original position. Hence, I made signal connections on the board, moved the components, deleted the manually added tracks and then re did the routing.

    [SOLVED] manual routing in eagle 6.3 lite

    Hi Keith, I found a way. I simply drew a signal wire b/w the pads and then deleted the previous track. Next, I did routing following the signal wire. Thanks, Y. Li

    [SOLVED] manual routing in eagle 6.3 lite

    Hi Kieth, The problem was solved. I had previously set the grid to finest which enabled me to route the board the way I wanted. Later I must have set it to some coarse value. Hence was not able to route the connections easily. BTW I had one more query pls. I have directly placed some wires...

    [SOLVED] manual routing in eagle 6.3 lite

    I was doing that... I selected the left most option.. but still when double left clicking on a pad, it is automatically showing a route between on of the possible destination pads. Previously, I was able to follow the signal traces between the pads.

    [SOLVED] manual routing in eagle 6.3 lite

    Hello, I am new to eagle lite and need some help pls. After I made the schematic and started with the routing of the components, initially I was able to follow the signal traces to do manual routing. Later on (something happened), the tool started suggesting the routes, ie I was not able to...
