AsYouAsked 5 years ago
I usually mill my pcb's andwhen i tried to open my gerber file in FlatCam(Programm that turns gerber file to G-code) The copperarea FAILED so MUCH that it looked horrible. Is there any way to fix this. I have tried to download the gerber file from other computersput its the same. Even onthe editor software.![Untitled.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/VjAwFoMlgJIzHsTg6X5iRcD2beUrudGfsKyAv964.png)![Untitled2.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/rHnrMa5FkRs8a6EfZwae3HcB9sb3jYem9umnYjwa.png)

Hi There is a temporary way to return v5.8.22, 1\. Open browser incognito mode 2\. Open the editor and login 3\. Open your PCB and keep your job 4\. If the editor pop up the update dialog\, ignore it 5\. The next time you need to do this again until we fix this issue\. thank you

Up, after new update - no changes with that bug, copper area looks awful. Almost all pads have artefacts or distorted. Using FlatCam![Untitled.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/gKVvxKco8XHy1SlnxEvRSYiUkx8abg4hfsiKwYg6.png)![Untitled.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/yKvJapZO1IpR31Wi2QuytO6ptHiCKvryreqeifIO.png)

We have seen problems before with EasyEDA Gerbers viewed in FlatCAM. For Gerber Viewing, please use gerbv: [https://docs.easyeda.com/en/Export/Export-Gerber-Files/index.html#Gerber-View](https://docs.easyeda.com/en/Export/Export-Gerber-Files/index.html#Gerber-View)

@dwb24 Hi All I have reported this issue at FlatCAM, [https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/issues/268/copper-crash-when-open-easyeda-v59-gerber](https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/issues/268/copper-crash-when-open-easyeda-v59-gerber) if FlatCAM can't resolve this issue, we will try to change our copper method back, but that will take few weeks. for v5.9,we using a new copper method, that will help to support the grid of copper shape and enhance the big file copper pour. it doesn't impact the PCB manufacture directly. for new copper method: the copper combine by piece and piece copper, as below: ![Snipaste_2019-01-24_10-09-19.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/uqmpYaTnQmRJpGwCK9xadzdvFgcjvAD4YcMIfIF4.png)

@UserSupport Hello! The FlatCAM staff responded to the post ([https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/issues/268/copper-crash-when-open-easyeda-v59-gerber](https://bitbucket.org/jpcgt/flatcam/issues/268/copper-crash-when-open-easyeda-v59-gerber)), stating that the source of the problem is apparently the new copper pour method from EasyEDA. In that case, have you released any new updates so that new copper pour method can be compatible with FlatCAM? If so, is there any forecast for this to happen? I also use a lot of the EasyEDA combination with FlatCAM. Thank you! João Mateus Santos
