Connection Points

Connection points define where wires can attach to your custom symbol when it is placed on a wiring diagram.

What Are Connection Points?​

Each connection point is a small anchor on the symbol. When you place the finished symbol on your diagram, these anchors become wire connection nodes — the same kind of connection nodes that exist on LRU pins and built-in symbols. Wires can be routed to and from each connection point.

Without at least one connection point, your symbol will be purely visual and cannot participate in wiring.

Adding Connection Points​

  1. In the Symbol Editor, enable Connection Point mode from the toolbar.
  2. Click anywhere on the canvas to place a connection point. It appears as a small blue circle.
  3. Add as many connection points as your symbol requires.

Repositioning​

Drag any connection point to move it. If the grid is enabled, the point snaps to the nearest grid intersection.

Deleting a Connection Point​

Right-click on a connection point and select Delete from the context menu.

On the Canvas​

When you place a custom symbol on your wiring diagram:

  • Each connection point becomes a wire-connectable node.
  • Connection points transform with the symbol — if you move, rotate, or scale the symbol, the connection points follow.
  • Wires connected to the symbol update their paths automatically when the symbol is moved.
