Sorry to piggyback on your post, but I'm new here and not allowed to start a new thread.
I'm working on a pcb design in Eagle 5.6 and I'm having a problem.
My trace widths and pad sizes will not permit lines to be routed between the pads of a DIL14 package. I can route every signal on my board except one with my current settings. I would like to make two pads on the DIL14 just a bit smaller than I can route a thinner line through and I'm good.
It's easy enough to route a new signal and choose the width, but I cannot seem to find a way to make two pads on the DIL14 a bit smaller without creating a new package in a library. If anyone knows of a way to accomplish this without creating a new part that would be great.
Assuming I have to create a new package, I cannot seem to copy an existing DIL14 and copy it so I may modify the two pads. Every time I group/copy (or cut) and then try to paste I get "Buffer Empty". Very frustrating...
I suppose I can create a new DIL14 package from scratch, and this may be what I need to do, but I thought I would ask if anyone has a more simple approach to my problem first.
Thanks.
