11.7.5 Defining a symbol
(= adding a symbol to a library.)
Mark in the Picture Editor the graphic figures which to-
gether should form a symbol, then:
Icon: "Heating Register" (Keyboard: <S>)
Desired library selection button (1 to 5)
[Insert]
In the procedure described above, the symbol is allocated
automatically to the last place of the chosen library and
given the lowest number which has never been used.
Numbers made free by delete procedures are not used.
If, however, the new symbol has to be allocated to a par-
ticular place, for example inserted before the symbol hav-
ing the number 27, the following procedure must be car-
ried out after library has been chosen:
Symbol No. 27
➡ Symbol No. 27 is now framed by a marking box.
[Insert]
The newly introduced symbol does not receive the number
27, but, as described above, the lowest number not yet
used.
The operation "Assign Name" can be used to allocate any
free number to a symbol at a later date.
A graphic figure which has been added as a symbol to the
library, can be used to carry out the following operations in
the Picture Editor:
Moving, enlarging/shrinking, compression/expansion,
mirror-imaging and rotation.
On the other hand, its line width and colour can no longer
be changed.
If this is desired, the connection to the symbol library must
be broken.
