Vertical 2:

• Copy library parts and paste them into a new design library

• Rename and edit a library part

• Create a new part and add it to your design library

Vertical 3:

• Add a library to your Capture project

• Place a title block, components, ground and power on a schematic page

• Search for parts in the default Capture libraries

• Place a part from the Unified Search (New in 17.4)

Vertical 4:

• Connect components to wires

• Select and move groups of wired components

• Connect a bus to components and nets

Vertical 5:
