Apprecite your reply but still don't understand the limitation? You
say 1 board per project, can you have more than 1 project or when
you want a new board do you have to easre the old board to make room
for the new? Hopefully you see my question, what is the actual
mechanics of making more than 1 board? Can you have more than 1
board saved at a time? Understand what a board is, but what is
Eagles definition of a "project"?
