Export BUG

jesper8W75R — Fri, 20 Aug 2021 08:57:13 GMT

Exporting to "EAGLE brd Files" format, NOT "EAGLE 9.x brd compatible Files" does not work.

I would assume the export could be opened by good old EAGLE, like version 7.7.0.
But no, it craps out with the errors below (+1200 more lines).

Not only that, but it cannot be opened in EAGLE 9.6.2 either.
Same errors.

Loading ... Warning(s): line 12: unknown attribute 'locked' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'coloredhighlight' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'whitehighlight' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'blackhighlight' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'coloredcolor' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'whitecolor' in tag <layer> line 12: unknown attribute 'blackcolor' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'locked' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'coloredhighlight' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'whitehighlight' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'blackhighlight' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'coloredcolor' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'whitecolor' in tag <layer> line 13: unknown attribute 'blackcolor' in tag <layer> line 14: unknown attribute 'locked' in tag <layer> line 14: unknown attribute 'coloredhighlight' in tag <layer> line 14: unknown attribute 'whitehighlight' in tag <layer> line 14: unknown attribute 'blackhighlight' in tag <layer>

Hi @jesper8W75R

We have delivered a bunch of new features in Fusion 360 electronics design that EAGLE doesn't have. The one you demonstrated here comes from the new layer panel. We have enhanced either front-end user interface or backend attribute here.

Export "EAGLE 9.x brd compatible Files" options would exclude/migrate these attributes during exporting.

I understand that strings in exporting to "EAGLE brd Files" format might be a bit confuse, especially appear with "EAGLE 9.x brd compatible Files" together. I will reflect this to the development team and look for an appropriate way to make the meaning much clear.

Thanks,

yiqiu

@yiqiu.han
I guess you mean you delivered a bunch of new BUGS in Fusion 360 electronics design that EAGLE doesn't have.

I just downloaded the new version (2.0.10806) today, and was immediately greeted with new and exciting bugs, which I'm in the process of reporting. Unpaid. Working with your Alpha software.

Admittedly, some of the old ones _seems_ to have gone, but it's too early to say, I would have to go through my list of about 25 bug reports to verify that.

It really is beyond me why an export bug would be related to the layer panel, but if you say so.

It's just a bit hilarious (and sad at the same time) that neither option will produce files that can be opened with EAGLE 9.6.2.

Hi, @jesper8W75R

Would you please share the file with us to investigate why neither option will produce files that can be opened with EAGLE 9.6.2 ?

Both f3z and fsch/fbrd would be helpful.

Thanks!

@yiqiu.han

Sorry, my mistake, I didn't mean to say neither option.
The "EAGLE 9.x brd compatible Files" DOES work, and files can be opened with 9.6.2 (and versions back to 9.4.2).

With the "EAGLE brd Files" format, the files cannot be opened with ANY version.
I wonder what this alternative is for.
