I am trying to build a basic circuit in eagle and have found components
that I was unable to find in other basic software. (such as mosfet,
thermistor etc)
But I cannot find these basic items in the schematic.
- A incandescent bulb
- A simple on - off switch
Can only find an LED and a switch with multiple connections.
First time I have used Eagle, previous I was just using Dia to layout
simple traces.

Thanks, I managed to find the library editor and follow some
tutorials
to get the parts I required for the schematic.
Fairly new to this so I did not know it even existed.
Now that I know it is there, should make things easier.
- Thanks

Again, I advise reading Markus' post BEFORE doing this.
