General Device Info Box
When a normal device symbol is selected on the schematic (i.e., not a
pseudo-device), then the following information box is displayed:
The following table lists the information and options available in this box.
Type This is the library type name of the device symbol, i.e., the
name as it appears in the Parts Palette. This is not the same
as the Part attribute field, which is normally used as the part
name in netlists.
Primitive Type This is the primitive type of the symbol. For standard types,
the name is shown; otherwise, the name “Reserved” is
shown. The ordinal number of the primitive type value is
shown in parentheses.
Subcircuit size If the selected device has a subcircuit, its memory size is
shown in Kilobytes.
Show pin numbers This switch allows you to disable the display of pin
numbers for the entire device. This is intended for discrete
components or others where pin numbers are not normally
shown on the diagram.
Lock opening
subcircuit
This switch allows you to prevent the subcircuit (if any) of
this device from being opened for editing.

below) for the first pin on the device. Buttons on the Pin
Information dialog allow you to sequence through the other
device pins.
