To Create a New Diagram
Before you start to create diagram objects:
• Make sure you have access to the necessary symbols. Set up your configuration file to point to the appropriate library directories.
• If you are going to work with Grid Snap On, modify your grid spacing to correspond to the required pin spacing in the diagram.
To Create a New Diagram:
1. Click File > New. The New dialog box opens.
2. Click Diagram in the Type box to start the Diagram module.
3. Type a new diagram file name or use the default file name format (dgm000#) and click OK. The New Diagram dialog box opens.
4. Click one of the following options. The New Diagram dialog box contains the following group boxes:
