Hi All In circuitmaker once you have created a new macro for a circuit symbol and given it a major class name etc and it stored in the library how can the major class names or the stored symbol name be edited/renamed/deleted in the library?? Regards Dave

A worked example might be the best way to describe this:
I have a symbol I made called ThickArrow, filed under User Defined>Symbols. I want to change that.
- Place it in a new schematic
- R-click it and choose Expand Macro
- D-click it to get the Edit Macro window
- Change name to ArrowThick
- Macros>Save Macro
- Change minor and/or major class when invited (instructed!) to.
- Use Macros>Macro Utilities to do general moving, deleting, etc.
See also the Help, particularly the sections I've arrowed:

Thanks Terry, the more i play with circuitmaker the more i like it. The way you can get cricuits and pcbs with a very short learning curve. Real handy that it converts autotrax lib's that ive built up over the years. Dave
