The Insert center allows you to insert different objects such as symbols, devices as well as window and symbol macros directly via a shared dialog onto project pages or into layout spaces. In addition the dialog provides various rapid access possibilities which allow you to accelerate the configuration:
- By entering a search term you can specifically search for the required objects. Using placeholders allows manifold search options.
- The Insert center remembers the objects last used and this way makes the selection easier if you want to place an object already used in the project again.
- You can define objects as Favorites if you have to insert the same objects frequently into your project.
- Assign a Tag to an object. This way you can "group" specific objects under a tag, for example a manufacturer name.
- Favorites are saved in the user settings, tags in the company settings and can be imported and exported. This allows the stored information to also be used on other workstations.
Notes:
- Page macros are not considered by the Insert center. Please select the following command path for the insertion of this macro type: Tab Home > Command group Page > Drop-down button Page macro > Insert.
- The Insert center is only available in the graphical editor, but not in the other editors such as in the plot frame, form or symbol editor.
