Insert a copy of a component
Use the Copy Component tool to insert a copy an existing component into
the drawing.
1 Click the Copy Component tool.
2 Select a component from the drawing just like the new one
you want to insert.
3 Select the insertion point.
This inserts a copy of the symbol you selected and then dis-
plays the Insert/Edit Component dialog box, so you can finish
annotating the component.
4 Click OK.
Insert similar components
Use the Multiple Insert tool to insert a series of similar components at fence
crossing points with underlying wires.
1 Click the Multiple Insert Component tool.
2 Select the component type from the Insert Component:
Schematic Symbols dialog box.
3 Select the component from the selection dialog box.
4 Select a point above the first wire that you want to process.
5 Select a point below the final wire for processing, and then
right-click to end the command.
6 With each possible insertion point (that is, fence crossing point
with a wire) a dialog box displays, prompting you to decide
whether to keep the insertion, keep all of the insertions, or
skip to the next one.
