TIP: You can set the default visibility independently for each attribute field
defined in a design. This is done by selecting the Define Attribute Fields
command in the Options menu and setting the “Visible by default” option as
desired for each field.
Editing Symbol Graphics
Using the Drawing Tools
The 8 items in the top half of the toolbar represent standard drawing tools.
Drawing Lines, Rectangles, Circles, Etc.
The shape tools in the toolbar, and the corresponding commands in the Tools
menu, are used to draw standard graphic objects. Here are some notes on the
usage of these tools:
 Once an item is drawn, it can be repositioned or resized by using the
selection pointer tool and clicking and dragging on the “handles” at the ends
of the object.
 While drawing or adjusting an object, you can use two keys on the keyboard
to change the way the object is positioned:
Never Visible This indicates that the field value should not be displayed
when the device is placed, regardless of the design's Visible
by Default setting for this field. This does not prevent the
value from being displayed later, it just sets the initial state.
