Hi friends!
I've been playing with the Eagle follow-me router which is really cool, trying to see if I can configure it to draw traces the way I would. However it causes Eagle to crash intermittently for me. I'm using Eagle 8.0.1 on macOS 10.12.2.
I find that sometimes when I choose route->follow-me (from one side) and then choose the "Follow-me parameters" icon, sometimes I'll get a crash. I've also gotten a crash when adjusting the "ChangeDir" parameter. However, this is quite intermittent and I can't reliably reproduce it, but I've experienced it at least three times in the last hour.
This set of operations *sometimes* reproduces the crash:
By repeating this a few times, I can produce crashes after a few routes attempts.
Let me know if any additional questions. Thanks!
Hello Samy,
I hope you're doing well. That's an interesting situation, the EAGLE manual warns about certain changes making the EAGLE autorouter unuseable however a crash like what you are describing is unusual.
I'll make a report on the crash and ask the developers to look into it. Once the next update comes out, try it again and let me know if this changes the issue.
Best Regards,
Jorge Garcia
