	The "Export Component" function, key '''[x]''', is used when creating a new component symbol to export a component with its schematic symbols to the component data base. First draw the symbol of the [[Edit component\|component]] on a free area in the schematic. If your symbol consists of several gates so that you might have some sub-symbols for each of the gates, use the "Compose Symbol" procedure to merge all sub-symbols by the use of key '''[y]'''. Select now all drawn parts (if applicable all the sub-symbols) of the component at the same time (drag a catch window with [[Mousekeys\|'''M1H''']]) and call the "Export Component" function from the menu. Now you should give a new component name. Also, you must select a designator prefix for the component (for example: T for transistors or IC for Integrated circuits, C for capacitors...) in the center of the dialog box. Also, you have to enter a package name (for example: DIL14). This package name will later be proposed when this package is selected for the component. At this point, you can only select a package which already exists. This means that the package must be contained in the library. '''This makes clear that the package should be drawn first if you want to draw a new component.''' If you have selected <without package>, no package later is proposed for insertion to the PCB. For example: the component DINA4HOR (a blank drawing sheet) will never need a package.

The "Export Component" function, key '''[x]''', is used to export a component with its schematic symbols to a library. Draw the different symbols of the [[Edit component|component]] on a free area in the schematic and use the "Compose Symbol" procedure to merge all symbol parts by the use of key '''[y]'''. Select now all symbols of the component at the same time (drag a catch window with [[Mousekeys|'''M1H''']]) and call the "Export Component" function from the menu. You can select now a library and select or create a new component name. Afterwards, you must select a designator prefix for the component (for example: T for transistors or IC for Integrated circuits, C for capacitors...) in the center of the dialog box. Also, you have to enter a package name (for example: DIL14). This package name will later be proposed when this package is selected for the component. At this point, you can only select a package which already exists. This means that the package must be contained in the library. '''This makes clear that the package should be drawn first if you want to draw a new component.''' If you have selected <without package>, no package later is proposed for insertion to the PCB. For example: the component DINA4HOR (a blank drawing sheet) will never need a package.

If the component name already exits in the library, TARGET 3001! will ask if you want to overwrite it.
