Hi!
I made an accidental board flipping with the command "Flip board".
I realized immediately what I did and I clicked again on "Flip board" in
the hope the board will fip back to the old possition, but the scenario was worse.
All my traces now misaligned, some open-air tracer appeared and other errors on the board.
The undo button was in a disabled state, so I can't press it to undo the commands.
I decide to close Eagle without saving the changes.
After I closed Eagle and reopened my project, it was on the same flipped state and with
the errors on like before, after I messed up my board.
Is there maybe any "auto backup" file maybe from where I can reload the previous state of my board?
If there is no "auto backup" then that would be nice to have it in some versions of Eagle in the future.
Thank you.

Thanks, mate for your quick response and help.
This was a lifesaver situation.
So, here is how and what I did:
The version of my Eagle is: 9.2.2 free
- clicked the Eagle icon on my desktop to run Eagle
- in the control panel of Eagle, from the "Recent files" tab I opened "my project.brd" file
- I moved my mouse over the "Flip board" and accidentally pressed 2x the left mouse button
- the board flipped
- I realized what I did and clicked again on the "Flip board" icon
- then I got a bunch of trace error...
- closed Eagle without saving anything
- opened my project again and most of the traces was corrupted, some of them were unconnected
and several errors were shown in the error list-error checking tool
The "Undo" command is not working in this case!
I would suggest it would be better if the Undo would work.
Here is a photo where I clicked accidentally:
Now is everything fine!
Thanks.
