Re: [AVR-Chat] Eagle Help ... slightly OT
2005-03-27 by Jim White
Drop does indeed drop libs from use. The Use command will get them back. There are two very active forums for Eagle. Browse to www.cadsoft.de and click on Forum. You will see Technical Support and User Chat. Click on those and your news client will open so you can see the messages. I use Outlook's find feature to search for questions that have been addressed before, usually with success. Otherwise post a question and you will almost always get answers. (Don't forget to set your client to read and show you all the past messages, there are over a thousand in each going back to 2002). I'd also highly recommend working through the tutorial. Eagle was a pretty steep learning curve for me, the tutorial got me over the first part of it quickly. Jim
