Pictorial Schematic Symbol Wizard

When you choose the add or edit a Pictorial Schematic symbol in the User Defined Product Wizard, the Pictorial Schematic Symbol Wizard appears.  This wizard allows you to generate Pictorial Schematic symbols quickly and easily, just by selecting a base symbol, rather than drawing the symbol you need.

Step 1 - Choose Symbol

Dlg_SymWiz_Pictorial01.pngUse the dropdown to choose the symbol on which your Pictorial Schematic symbol will be based.  The symbols listed in the dropdown are those found in the Generic product libraries.

A preview of the symbol will be shown next to the dropdown.

When you've chosen the base symbol click on Next>. This creates a basic Pictorial Schematic symbol for your UDP.

If you wish later to edit or add more sophisticated graphical elements to your UDP symbol you can use Symbol Edit mode.

Step 2 -  Wizard Complete

The UDPWiz_Tick.png indicates that a Pictorial Schematic Symbol has been created for the UDP.

If you wish to change the symbol, click on Edit the Pictorial Schematic symbol.  This restarts the Pictorial Schematic Symbol Wizard and populates it with the data you have already defined for this symbol.  You can use this technique to change the symbol at any time by rightclicking on the UDP in the Product Browser and selecting Edit Product to start the UDP Wizard.

To delete the Pictorial Schematic symbol, click on the UDPWiz_Cross.png.

Click on any of the links to add a new symbol for the UDP, or click on Finish to close the UDP Wizard.
