I received a board design from a coworker. The board is designed with the origin in the middle of the board. I'm using the standard version of Eagle, so I know I need everything to be in the positive quadrant. However when I group everything together and try to move the group to the positive quadrant Eagle displays "...objects extend outside..." error and will not move the group. Any idea on what I'm missing?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I discovered the board size exceeded the limitations of the standard license. I upgraded my license to Premium and I have no issue now.
It would be nice if Eagle displayed more detailed errors, clearly stating the real issue, instead of leaving the user to stumble around in the dark until they find a solution.
Hello everyone! On page https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/personal there is mentionned that the "Fusion 360 for personal use" electronics and PCB design is limited to 80cm2 board area, which seems to be a very generous amount of space for the personal use. Then... how comes that I receive the "Some objects extend outside the allowed board area" error messages on boards that are far less extended than 80cm2?
Well... I might have slightly misunderstood the 80cm2 area limitation, which turns out to be a not-that-very-generous amount of space for the personal use. Thus, I will simply reduce the area of my PCB's or re-design them as modules that can be cascaded. Problem solved.
