Hi there,
I'm relatively new to XCircuit, and I just can't figure out how to add
objects to a new library page.
From Tutorial 2, I know how to use SHIFT-V to create virtual library
instances into the User Library. Unfortunately, I can't even restore my
user library after a restart, because I don't know how to save it.
I can use File -> New Library Page to create a library. Unfortunately, I
couldn't figure out how to add anything to this library page. I tried to
'M' an existing object from a different library page to my library. That
does something weird. I've also tried to use the File -> Library
Manager, setting my "Target Library Page" to the new page I created, and
"Load Selected" objects from an existing source library. After loading,
the objects still do not appear in my new library page.
I've also tried saving the object I want, closing XCircuit, and then
File -> Read XCircuit File. I loaded my saved file, and set target
library to my new library. It still does not show up in my library page!
I've read this but am still confused:
http://opencircuitdesign.com/xcircuit/features.html#Libraries
Library page, yes, that's what I want to 1) create, 2) save, and 3)
load. But I don't know how to add anything to a library, or save it. I
know that after I save it, I need to load the library back in a .xcircuitrc.
Technology: I do want the new objects that I create to be in a separate
technology. Unfortunately, I don't know how to create a new object, or
name it, for that matter. Pressing 'e' or 'E' in existing library pages
does not let me rename anything.
So, I'm pretty lost and would like some help.
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
