Placement

Placement of branch type components usually consists of the following common steps:

Set the size and spec in the Standard Preferences dialog.
Select an option from the Branches taskbar/toolbox.

Note: If there is more than one record in the specification that meets the criteria, you are prompted to select a specific record from the Spec Record Selection dialog.

Define the Placement Point (Main Port, Run Port etc.) and component settings in the Place Component dialog.
Use the mouse to pick placement, direction and rotation points.

Note: If connecting to an existing component, then only placement and rotation picks are required.
