How To Remove Old Route and GND Plane in Eagle CAD

[iruraz]

Hi All,

I try to remove old route in Eagle but I could not. I use "delete" but it gives error which you can see in below picture with yellow arrow.

**broken link removed**

Another issue is about "ground plane". When I close and open the file, ground plane disappear. When I click the "ratsnest" button, ground plane apears again. How is "ground plane" made permanent? And how can I switch ground plane off and on for a short time?

Regards.

1. use "Rip up" option for removing the track.
2. for hiding ground plane go to layer setting and click on that particular layer and give ok.

@Kick, thanks.

1- I could not use "Rip Up" command for removing the track. I closed the eagle pcb without save and opened again. Track (or route mark) disappeared by itself.

2- It is not about the layer settings. Because every layer (top and bottom) has it 's own GND plane. I tried "ripup gnd" command it worked. It deleted inside of the polygon.

Yes problem is solved. But I do not understand that why track (route mark) appears and why I could not delete it.

Thanks for your help.

Regards.

Because you didn't delete the connection in the schematic. First you delete the connection in schematic and try it.

But there is no redundat connection in the schematic.
