In schematic view select from menu '''Components''' item '''Create a new component'''. The last saved package shows up. Say: "Yes, use his package." Place as many pins as you have pads.
	Double click each pin to add its function (e.g. Power) and name (e.g. GND). Remark: A schematic symbol as a whole can be made of several sub-symbols e.g. gates. If you want to divide the pins you have to such sub-symbols, highlight the pins meant and add a separate handle cross to them. Doubleclick each handle cross and decide how to insert each: "Automatically as NEXT" or "Extra as REST". The power pins should be prepared to be inserted "extra as Rest". Now use the button to save the new component to the data base. Enter to the dialog popping up. If you again want to edit the symbol in case you have forgotten something, do so or just close the ultimate dialog. Done.		Double click each pin to add its function (e.g. Power) and name (e.g. GND).
