Adding New Component

New components can be added in three windows: the Workspace Tree, Wire Sheet, and Property Sheet. New component is created by:

  • duplicating the existing component (using Copy or Duplicate function);
  • dragging a new component directly from the Device Libraries/Kits window.

The name of the new component is given automatically; however, it can be changed manually by the user. It is possible to bulk add components of the same type by indicating a number of components to add along with a naming pattern in the dialog box (see more in Renaming Components). If several components of different types are added at the same time, the iC Tool will generate unique names to all the components added automatically.
