You're not talking about a menu entry, but the actual picture that goes on the schematic itself? There are 5, I think, different symbols built into Protel that you can set up a custom menu entry for. I don't think there is any way to easily add a new symbol to the list, however. On the other hand, I think you could create a "component", put it in a library, and make up a menu entry that would select that component with a "Place Part" command. If the name of the pin in the component is GND or a power net on your board, and the pin is set as a power pin, it should work just like any of the predefined power ports. I've never had the need to make a new symbol for this purpose, the ones built in have been sufficient. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
