Create Electrical Schematics and Circuit Diagrams

Scaling and Rotating Shapes
You can change the size of any shape by clicking on its grow handles (black squares around the object) and using your mouse to make it shrink or grow.

To rotate a shape, grab the circular rotate knob near the right side of the shape and drag it to rotate your shape.

Linking Symbols to Lines
Typically, the wires or pipes in engineering diagrams are represented by lines. The engineering symbols (such as electrical circuit components) have specific connection points at their ends where lines can attach to them, and stay attached even when the components are moved.

You can connect shapes and lines by clicking on the Add Lines button on the SmartPanel. This will turn your cursor into a pencil. Touch the pencil to the side of one object and drag the line to the edge of another shape until you see an Anchor symbol appear signaling that the line will be attached once you let go. If needed, you can modify the connection points to get exactly the linking-position that you want.

Changing Line Style and Thickness
You can also change the line's shape, style, thickness, color, and more by using the right-click menu or the Line commands under the Shape Style group.
