CHANGE CAP ROUND | FLAT
  - The CHANGE command has the new options STOP, CREAM, and FIRST to modify
    the new pad/smd flags (the THERMALS option already exists).
  - The parameters Spacing and Isolate in the CHANGE popup menu now present
    a list of predefined values (just like, for instance, the Width parameter).
    All such popup menus now contain the entry "..." at the bottom, which
    brings up a dialog to enter a new value.

* COPY command:

  - The COPY command can now copy parts in a schematic (see "Help Copy").
  - The COPY command can now copy packages and device sets from other
    libraries into the currently edited library (see "Help Copy").
  - The COPY command now mirrors the object that is attached to the cursor
    when the center mouse button is pressed.


* DELETE command:

  - The option "SIGNALS" must now be written in full.

* DISPLAY command:

  - The automatic enabling/disabling of related layers when activating or
    deactivating the t/bPlace or Symbols layer in the DISPLAY command can now
    be turned off by appending the line

    Option.DisplayRelatedLayers = "0"

    to the eaglerc.usr file.

* DRC command:

  - The DRC now checks for objects in the Pads and Vias layer that are not
    Pads or Vias (i.e. wires, rectangles etc.) and flags them as "Layer Abuse"
    errors. The reason for this is that EAGLE does not handle these object
    in any special way, so they might cause short circuits. If you get such
    an error from the DRC, you should move the object in question into the
    proper signal layer(s).
  - The DRC now checks objects in the t/bKeepout layers only if the
    respective layer is activated.
  - The DRC now checks whether all vias and objects in signal layers correspond
    to the actual layer setup. If they don't, a "Layer Setup" error is flagged.

* GRID command:

  - The GRID command accepts the new option 'alt', which allows you to define
    an "alternate" grid that will be used whenever you press the Alt key while
    selecting or moving objects. The alternate grid can have its own size and
    unit, and is typically used to temporarily switch into a finer grid if the
    normal grid is too coarse. See "Help/Editor Commands/GRID".
  - The GRID dialog has been changed to allow the user to enter the alternate
    grid parameters.

* INVOKE command:

  - The INVOKE command now mirrors the object that is attached to the cursor
    when the center mouse button is pressed.

* MIRROR command:

  - The MIRROR command now accepts the name of an element in a board, just
    like the MOVE command.

* MITER command:

  - The new command MITER can be used to "take the edge off" wire joins
    (see "Help Miter").

* MOVE command:

  - When picking up an object with the MOVE command, the status line now
    displays the same information as the SHOW command (currently this only
    works if the "User guidance" is turned off).
  - If an Arc is selected at one of its end points, that point can now be moved
    freely (just like that of a Wire). The Radius of the Arc is then scaled
    accordingly.
  - The MOVE command now mirrors the object that is attached to the cursor
    when the center mouse button is pressed.
  - The MOVE command can now select objects at their origin by pressing the
    Ctrl key (see "Help/Editor Commands/MOVE").

* NET command:

  - The NET command now displays information about the current net in the
    status line.
  - The NET command now has an extended syntax to allow drawing arcs (see
    "Help/Editor Commands/NET").

* PACKAGE command:

  - The PACKAGE command can now create package variants with packages from
    other libraries (see "Help Package").

* PAD command:

  - The PAD command can now create pads with arbitrary angles and therefore
    accepts an "orientation" parameter (See "Help Pad").
  - The pad shapes XLongOct and YLongOct have been renamed to Long. When
    updating an existing drawing from a previous version, XLongOct pads will
    be converted to Long pads with an angle of 0 degrees, and YLongOct pads
    will become Long with 90 degrees.
  - The new pad shape "Offset" can be used to have pads that have the shape as
    defined by Long, but extend only to one side.
  - The PAD command supports the new options NOSTOP, NOTHERMALS and FIRST to
    define the new 'flags' (see "Help/Editor Commands/PAD").

* PASTE command:

  - The PASTE command now mirrors the object that is attached to the cursor
    when the center mouse button is pressed.

* POLYGON command:

  - The 'width' and 'layer' can now be changed at any time while drawing a
    polygon.
  - The POLYGON command now has an extended syntax to allow drawing arcs (see
    "Help/Editor Commands/POLYGON").

* RATSNEST command:

  - The RATSNEST command now processes all points of a signal, even if that
    signal is very complex (in previous versions it dropped wire end points
    from processing if the total number of connection points exceeded 254).
    This requires more memory when calculating the ratsnest. In case this
    is a problem on your system, you can revert to the original method
    by appending the line

    Option.RatsnestLimit = "254"

    to the eaglerc.usr file. The value given
    here is the number of connection points up to which all wire end points
    will be taken into account and thus limits the amount of memory used
    (processing will use up to the square of this value in bytes, so a value
    of 1024 will limit the used memory to 1MB). A value of "0" means there is
    no limit. A value of "1" will result in airwires being connected only to
    pads, smds and vias.
  - RATSNEST no longer marks the board drawing as modified, since the
    calculated polygon data (if any) is not stored in the board, and the
    recalculated airwires don't really constitute a modification of the drawing.

* ROTATE command:

  - The ROTATE command now accepts an "orientation" parameter (e.g. SMR359.9).
  - The ROTATE command now accepts the name of an element in a board, just
    like the MOVE command.
  - The ROTATE command can now be used with Click&Drag to rotate objects or
    groups by any angle (see "Help Rotate").

* ROUTE command:

  - The ROUTE command now dynamically recalculates the current airwire while
    routing. In doing so, it also takes into account points along a wire, if
    those are closer to the cursor than the ends of that wire. If there is
    a pad, via or smd that is at most Snap_Length away from the end of the
    airwire (in the current layer), that end will now snap to the center of
    the object.
  - The ROUTE command no longer automatically sets a Via at the end point
    of a wire. If you want to place a Via at the end point of a routed wire
    you can do so by holding the Shift key down while clicking at the end
    point.
  - When determining the layer in which to route, the ROUTE command now also
    considers Wires (not only SMDs).
  - When changing the layer in the ROUTE command, only the minimum necessary
    via will be set (according to the layer setup in the Design Rules). It may
    happen that an already existing via of the same signal is extended
    accordingly, or that existing vias are combined to form a longer via if
    that's necessary to allow the desired layer change.
  - The ROUTE command now has an extended syntax to allow drawing arcs (see
    "Help/Editor Commands/ROUTE").
  - The ROUTE command now creates a new airwire if necessary when Ctrl is
    pressed while selecting the starting point (see "Help/Editor Commands/ROUTE").

* SET command:

  - The SET USED_LAYERS command also takes into account the layers from the
    new multilayer setup in the Design Rules and keeps them in the menus.
  - The SET WIRE_BEND command accepts the two new values 5 and 6 to define
    bend styles that start or end in a 90 degree arc, plus the new value 7
    for a bend style that results in an arc that exactly fits to the wire at
    the starting point.  If there isn't exactly one wire at the starting point,
    a straight wire is drawn. This bend style can be used to draw wires in sort
    of a "freehand" way.
  - The special character '@' can be used with the SET WIRE_BEND command to
    define which bend styles shall actually be used when switching with the
    right mouse but (as in SET WIRE_BEND @ 1 2 4 5;).
  - The SET command now restores the program default values for the parameter
    menus when executed as, for instance,

    SET WIDTH_MENU;

    (i.e. without any values). This applies to all *_WIDTH parameters.

* SHOW command:

  - The SHOW command now displays the net class (in case of a net or signal)
    and the gate name (in case of a multi gate part).

* SMASH command:

  - The SMASH command can now be applied to a GROUP.
  - Pressing the Shift key while clicking on a part or group with the SMASH
    command will now "un-smash" the object.
  - The >PART and >GATE parameters are now also smashed.

* SMD command:

  - The SMD command supports the new options NOSTOP, NOTHERMALS and NOCREAM to
    define the new 'flags' (see "Help/Editor Commands/SMD").

* SPLIT command:

  - The SPLIT command now has an extended syntax to allow drawing arcs (see
    "Help/Editor Commands/SPLIT").

* UPDATE command:

  - The UPDATE command can now update packages in a library (see "Help Update").

* VIA command:

  - The VIA command has a new parameter that defines the layers this via shall
    cover. The syntax is from-to, where 'from' and 'to' are the layer numbers
    that shall be covered. For instance 2-7 would create a via that goes from
    layer 2 to layer 7 (7-2 would have the same meaning). If that exact via is
    not available in the layer setup of the Design Rules, the next longer via
    will be used (or an error message will be issued in case no such via can be
    set).
  - The VIA command supports the new option STOP to define the new 'flags'
    (see "Help/Editor Commands/VIA").

* WIRE command:

  - The WIRE command now has an extended syntax to allow drawing arcs (see
    "Help/Editor Commands/WIRE").

* Miscellaneous:

  - If a net gets renamed because a Supply pin was placed on it, the user is
    now notified of this.
  - Improved part placement in BOARD and PASTE command.
  - The files created with EXPORT IMAGE now contain the image resolution in
    case the image format supports this.
  - The RIPUP command can now be interrupted.
  - The cursor is now switched to the "hour glass" while the Autorouter run.
  - The size of the text origins is now limited to the actual size of the text.
  - There is now a new item "Stop command" in the "Edit" pull down menu which
    has the same effect as the "Stop" button in the action toolbar.
  - When printing on DOS based Windows systems (Windows 95, 98, ME) EAGLE can
    now render the drawing in memory and send the complete bitmap to the printer
    in order to overcome problems with printing texts on some printer drivers.
    This slows down printing, but at least it produces correct results. If you
    happen to have a printer driver that doesn't work correctly, you can
    turn this workaround on by setting the parameter

    Printer.InternalRendering

    in the eaglerc.usr file to a value other than
    t
