If you want to place certain pin groups of a component symbol at different places in the schematic or on different schematic pages, you can create the component symbol so that it consists of several sub-symbols (pin groups). The individual sub-symbols can - one after the other - be brought into the schematic and placed separately.

Figure: Symbol of the four pin component RE1 with two sub symbols a and b.

To make it quick: When drawing (creating) the symbol, you mark such a pin group (sub symbol) and set its own handle cross at inner position using the keyboard key [y]. Do this for all pin groups. Finally, mark everything and save it with [x].

In detail.
We are in schematic view.

Figure: Use drawing tool to place pins for a new symbol.



Figure: Four pins placed one after the other by click, numbers 1 to 4 are given automatically. At the shaft of the pin, where <nc> shows, later the signal name will show up, as soon as connected.



Figure: Use drawing tool to draw an "Open (unfilled) rectangle"



Figure: Rectangles drawn as body of the sub symbols (any other form is possible).



Figure: Double click each Pin and set its function.



Figure: Use text tool (key ["]) and click above black frame. Select text function Symbol name.



Figure: Use text tool (key ["]) and click below black frame. Select text function Component value.



Figure: Beim zweiten Subsymbol genau so verfahren.



Figure: Jetzt das linke Sub-Symbol mit Fangfenster markieren und Tastaturtaste [y] drücken. Mit OK das Zusammenfassen bestätigen.



Figure: Mit Mausklick das Griffkreuz setzen, z. B. ins Zentrum.



Figure: Beim rechten Sub-Symbol genau so verfahren: Alle Elemente markieren und [y] drücken. Mit OK Das Zusammenfassen bestätigen.



Figure: Mit Mausklick das Griffkreuz setzen, hier auch ins Zentrum.



Figure: Jetzt alles markieren und Tastaturtaste [x] drücken, zum Export des Ganzen in die Datenbank (= Abspeichern).



Figure: Export-Dialog bedienen, Gehäuse zuweisen, Speichern, fertig.
