 COMPONENT

The components are built from the top menu bar.

The buttons have the same role as in the software.

The buttons necessarily result in black surfaces during creation.

The buttons inevitably create white surfaces during creation

The button allows for the installation of points that will serve to connect the components in
the different technologies. A liaison point has no graphics associated, the cross
Red marks its exact location. A text is always associated with the connection point.
You can choose the font, alignment, and justification of this text on the right side of the screen.
The text cannot be deleted; it must be replaced with a space to hide it.
When several connection points must have the same position for the associated text,
it is simpler to copy them (moving with Ctrl) than to define them multiple times.

The button allows for the placement of the component reference. A single character that
will be the default name of the component when it is placed on the sheet. This marker
is mandatory, it must be replaced with a space to hide it. It is represented
surrounded by a blue line to differentiate it from other texts.

The buttons create horizontal and vertical symmetries of the elements of

selected drawings.

The buttons perform rotations of +90° and -90° of drawing elements

selected.

Press the button to display the alignment grid (see page Edit Views).

Press the button to activate the magnetic grid (see Grid Drawing page).
