Cannot close error window 9.1.0

When accidentally deleting an airwire in 9.1.0, I was presented with the

"Can't backannotate this operation. Please do this in the schematic!"

error, which is nothing unusual. 

The problem is that I cannot clear the error pop up , it just reappears because the software is not undoing the invalid operation.

The only way to clear the error is by ending Eagle in task manager without saving any recent changes. 

 

P.S. so glad to see that this forum post draft is being Autosaved every couple of minutes. Shame that doesn't work so well in the software.

Hi @timothy_ayers,

I hope you're doing well. I can't reproduce this. If I OK the dialog it goes away. Airwires can't be deleted as long as there is a schematic associated to the board. So you would have to go to the schematic and delete the net there. Don't keep trying to delete the airwire on the board.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,

Thank you for your reply Jorge.

I cannot replicate the error either, but I could see that when I clicked
"OK" on the error (or the close pop up "X") that the airwire had been
'deleted' and was no longer on the board design. If I try to replicate the
error, the airwire is still present.

As I said, it was purely accidental that I clicked delete on the airwire
and not something that I intentionally do. Just unusual that I could not
close the pop up window.

Is there a 9.1.1 version due for release any time soon, 9.1.0 crashes A LOT
when I'm working, and never for the same reason.
