I also have become a fan of Eagle..I found Eagle completely unintuitive.
I did too!.. to the point where it was a turn off..
then later came back to it..
I read a tips-n-tricks article somewhere about Eagle.. that helped.
1.) mentioned Eagle was designed to be used with a mouse and a 3-button mouse at that. (middle mouse wheel has functionality too...switching from top to bottom layer/auto dropping via's..etc)
2.) Eagle works 'backwards' then how many (at least myself) are taught to work.. normally (maybe this is a Windows thing?).. we select the object/text (whatever) FIRST... and then click on the effect you want to be applied to it (bold, flip, color change..etc)..
however in Eagle.. its the other way around.. you click on the effect/change you want to apply.. and then select/choose the object/part you want it applied to..
keeping these small things in mind help improve my work flow with it..
