Let’s talk!
Time is running. And if you wondered due to lack of updates recently: Copper is still alive. But, development cooled down. There are numerous reasons for that: EAGLE got bought by Autodesk. This seems to work out very well for EAGLE, in terms of updates and also pricing. However, in the beginning it cooled down […]

Copper for iOS released!
Last year I spent a lot of time refactoring Copper to get rid of older code and to set the foundation for something new. As I always try to have well structured code, this has not been as time consuming as I thought. I basically just extracted all non User-Interface code into a framework called […]

Copper 1.3 and Yosemite
I got a few reports that Copper 1.3 crashes on Yosemite. I am currently investigating the issue. If you cannot run Copper after an update, you can download 1.2.1 from this URL in the meantime from here. Sorry for the inconvenience. I had to make some last minute changes as Apple didn’t approve 1.3 in the first […]

Copper 1.3 is finally available
After so many months of development and waiting for Apple to get the problem resolved we finally managed to get 1.3 finished and uploaded to the Mac App Store. It should work fine from Yosemite to El Capitan. However, it’s been hard to get this release done. Of course I did not rest while I waited […]

Version 1.2.1 released
Today I released version 1.2.1. It’s a quick bugfix release that fixes various stability issues that came with version 1.2. In the last version we did a lot of optimizations that proved not to be very clever in some places. For those interested: If you can’t optimized the work to be done by optimizing the algorithms […]

And Copper now comes with extensive Through Hole Part support in 3D with many more parts and a few more generators. Through Hole Parts and Generators Very important for quite a lot of our users: […]

I finally cracked it: Custom models coming soon
I did write quite a lot here about my motivation creating Copper. Before building Copper I created the 3D models of my PCB using Eagle Up and Sketchup. While I really liked the ease of use, I didn’t like the way you have to “source” 3D parts. They must have been available in Sketchup file […]

What to expect in 2016 …
Happy New Year! Thank you very much for all your help, support and feedback in the last few months. I am very proud of what we have achieved 2015 and I am really looking forward to bring Copper to a new level in 2016. Our goal remains the same: Developing a full EDA suite for […]
