Another option is just to duplicate and/or modify it in the data base. This article describes this second aspect.<br /> <br /> <br /> For example you can<br /> <br /> * generate a copy of an IBF component<br /> ** only the symbol<br /> ** symbol as well as package<br /> * create a copy of a user component<br /> * modify properties afterwards<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> == Menu &quot;Component&quot; in the component browser (data base) ==<br /> <br /> Open the component browser as if you wanted to import a symbol to the schematic. Choose the first option in menu &quot;Component&quot;: &quot;Create new component...&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Image:Browsermenue_Bauteil_e.png]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> === Create a new component... ===<br /> &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Image:generisch_e.png]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> A [[Generic symbols|generic symbol]] means a general, universal symbol like a default or a specimen without specific parameters or values so that it can be used for a complete class of components. So if you start to create a new component you get asked whether you&#039;d like to use such a generic symbol. Say yes and a dialog offers a variety of generics symbols:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Image:generic_dlg_1_e.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> As an example we select the symbol of a Darlington NPN transistor which immediately appears as a new component. It receives a black USER flag announcing: this part is not a genuine TARGET 3001! part but a part being created by the user.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:generic_dlg_3_e.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> Right mouseclick (&#039;&#039;&#039;[[M2]]&#039;&#039;&#039;) on it&#039;s name line allows adding attributes or to handle the part in different ways.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Create new component with the IC assistant... ===<br /> <br /> Back in browser menu &quot;Component&quot;. The IC-Assistant is meant for components with a multitude of pins and pads. It works based on a template script, that&#039;s nothing new compared to older TARGET 3001! versions. Please find a description here: [[Symbol assistant]].&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Edit component properties... ===<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> Follow the tabs in this dialog to enter your desired properties to the component.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[image:generic_dlg_4_e.png]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Symbol, package, 3D, simulation ===<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:generisch_dlg_2_e.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Bauteil zu &quot;Meine Bauteile&quot; zuordnen ===<br /> Please see article: [[My components]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Bauteil in Liste aufnehmen ===<br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:generisch_dlg_5.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:generisch_dlg_6.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:generisch_dlg_7_e.jpg]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Alle markierten Bauteile ===<br /> <br /> [[image: generisch_dlg_8_e.png]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Edit component types|More info on component type]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Package proposal|More info on package proposal]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> Delete (without package)&lt;br&gt;<br /> Change manufacturer&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> === Delete (with/without package) ===<br /> <br /> ... self explanatory.<br /> <br /> === Create copy of &lt;component highlighted&gt; as a new component ===<br /> <br /> <br /> ... self explanatory.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[de: Neue Bauteile erzeugen]][[fr: Créer des composants nouveaux]]</div> Markus Friedrich
