The following will explain the operation for placing symbols on a schematic.
To quickly find the symbol that you want from among the many symbols, is convenient to use Component Search, which executes a search according attributes or Model No.
Directly place a symbol on a schematic. Symbols will be temporary objects when the components are not determined.
Because footprints cannot be registered, when design is done in collaboration with a PCB, convert symbols to components or place the components.
It is possible to export Netlists even when symbols are placed directly.
There are two ways to place symbols.
Method 1. Placing Symbols from the Symbol Window(Recommended)
