  • Open an existing diagram view.
  1. In the tree, right-click the component and select Place Electrical Component in View.
  2. Click the diagram view at the convenient place to insert the component.
    The symbol is placed and a context toolbar appears.
  3. Optional: To modify the position of the symbol, select one of the following commands:
    • Flip horizontally
    • Flip vertically
    • Rotate to left by 90 degrees
    • Rotate to right by 90 degrees
  4. Click anywhere in the diagram view to validate the placement.
