Schematic Drawing Features
 The DevEditor module (included with LogicWorks) allows you to
create libraries of custom device symbols using familiar drawing tools.
 Any circuit can be attached to a symbol as a subcircuit to create a
simulation model. The subcircuit can be opened at any time to view or
modify internal operation.
 A circuit schematic can be up to a total of 5 feet by 5 feet. Any number
of circuit windows can be open simultaneously, allowing easy copying
of partial or complete diagrams from one file to another. Each circuit is
displayed in a separate window with independent control of scroll and
zoom.
 Commands and drawing modes can be selected using menu items,
keyboard equivalents, or a tool palette that is always visible in each
window.
 Any group of objects on the drawing can be repositioned with a simple
click-drag mouse action. Signal lines are rerouted interactively to
maintain right-angle connections.
 Multiple signal-line routing methods allow most pin-to-pin
connections to be made with only two mouse clicks.
 Signal names are global across a schematic. Like-named signals are
thus logically connected for simulation and netlisting purposes.
 Free text created in other programs can be pasted onto a circuit
schematic. Similarly, complete or partial circuit diagrams can be
pasted into word-processing or drafting documents.
 Objects can be drawn in user-selectable colors on machines equipped
with a color display.
 Circuit and timing diagrams can be printed on any laser, inkjet, or dot-
matrix printer that is supported by a Windows device driver.
