Component Object, first choose the appropriate category, then select the desired component
from the drop-down menu. Once the component has been selected, simply left-click at the
desired location on the Layout. Left-clicking a category icon will select the component which
occurs first in the menu list. When using the Object Toolbar to place components into the Layout,
certain components will present the user with a pop-up window of configuration options.
The Object Toolbar also provides the option of either a select cursor or a text cursor. The select
cursor is for component selection, placement, wiring, etc. The text cursor is for placing Text
Objects into the Layout, for system design labeling purposes.
