Eagle import missing values on PCB

Upverter Support Layout Editor
#1

I know there are already a few threads on Eagle imports but this is an issue not mentioned in the other threads.

When I import an eagle project, the schematic and PCB layout import just fine, but it seems like the tValues and bValues layers are not being imported to the Top and Bottom Silkscreen layers in Upverter.

As component values are often on those layers, it would be nice if the importer would pull those layers out to the Silkscreen layers just like the tDocu and bDocu are.

Is there a fix for this that I’m missing in the current version?

Hi James,
All of the data appears to be there, but hidden. I’m not sure why yet…

For instance, if you make a copy of F1 on your CVHost v0.2 board (select F1 in the schematic, hit Ctrl-C and then Ctrl-V) and switch to the PCB, you can see that the text comes with the copy.

I’ll keep looking into it.

Any further information on this?
