Questions relating to designing PCBs

Hello,

I wanted to do the panelization in Eagle. So I copied the latest .brd file which needs to be panelized in the same folder.Opened that. Selected the complete layout & copied that in the same .brd with equal spacing to make the panelization. Reference designators got incremented in each panel. Not the same refdes got copied.

I simply copied the .brd file in the same folder to make the panelization. So when I opened the .brd, schematics was not loaded.Now, I want to interconnect the schematics with .brd. Plz help me to do this. Thanks!!

You are doing it the hard way, which I don't think will work anyway. You can use "panelize.ulp". It copies all the names to new layers so they don't change with the parts themselves. Then you just need to hide the original name layers, close the schematic window, and you can copy what's left. Change the CAM layers accordingly.
