10 Chapter 2—Schematic Editing
Creating a New Circuit
To create a new design, click on the New Document button ( ) in the
toolbar, or select the New item in the File menu, then select Circuit from
the list of document types.
The new design will consist of an empty master circuit that will appear in a
circuit window as Circuit1.CCT, Circuit2.CCT, and so on. This command
does not create a disk file. The design exists only in memory until you save
it using the Save As command.
Your circuit diagram is created by first placing one or more devices in the
circuit window (as described below), and then interconnecting the device
pins with signal connections.
Closing a Design
A design is closed when its master circuit window is closed.
At the top left corner of the master circuit’s window, click on the X icon or
select the Close command from the File menu.
In either case, you will be prompted to save the design before closing if any
changes have been made.
Disposing of a Design File
LogicWorks has no built-in command to dispose of a design file. All infor-
mation about a design is stored in a single file. You may, however, simply
delete this file via the Windows Explorer.
Navigating Around a Schematic
In addition to the standard scroll bars and Reduce/Enlarge menu items,
LogicWorks has a number of convenient features for moving around a dia-
gram.
