Add symbol |
A symbol is a graphical representation of a component (Resistor, capacitor, IC).
A symbol can be imported from a library or a symbol directory.
In the top window the symbol directories and libraries are visible, and in the bottom window the symbols stored in that directory or library. The search order for a symbol will be based on the top window. First the symbol will be searched in the”Local symbol directory”. If not found the “Global symbol directory” will be searched, etc. By clicking on a directory/library item symbols in the directory/library will be listed in the bottom window. In the edit box at the bottom of the dialogbox a symbol description is shown for the selected symbol. By clicking on a symbol the symbol can be placed on the schematic. By pressing the right mouse button a number of timer the symbol will rotate/mirror. By pressing the left mouse button the symbol will be placed. The dialogbox remains visible, and will disappear by clicking on the Cancel button.
