Style Library

The Style Library (accessible via Edit - Style Library) allows you to save and reuse frequently used styles for graphic objects (color, line type, fill type, etc.).

Displaying Styles

Styles in the library are shown as:

• Lines: For lines and wires.
• Ellipses: For objects with fill (rectangles, ellipses, polygons, etc.).

Style Categories

The Style Library is divided into two parts:

Temporary Styles

Automatically saves the last 20 styles you used.

Permanent Styles

Contains styles you want to keep permanently.

Adding a Style to the Library

Copying a style automatically adds it to Temporary Styles.

Moving Styles Between Categories

Drag a style from Temporary Styles to the Permanent Styles tab to save it permanently. Similarly, you can remove a permanent style by dragging it back to Temporary Styles.

Using a Style

1. Select the target object in your drawing.
2. Open the Edit - Style Library menu.
3. Select a style (temporary or permanent).
4. Click Apply to Selected Objects or double-click the style.

Automatically Applying Styles to Wires

You can automatically apply a style to wires with specific names. For example, a "PEN" style will be applied to wires named "PEN."

Steps:

1. In the Permanent Styles tab, name the wire style accordingly.
2. Draw a new wire and assign it the corresponding name in the Properties panel.

The style will automatically be applied to the wire.

Style Storage

Styles are stored in the Symbol Library under the following files:

• _CONF\styles\temp.xml
• _CONF\styles\perm.xml
