Inserting Symbols

Symbols are resources available from the Resource Browser. To open the Resource Browser, select Windows > Palettes > Resource Browser. Display the symbol to insert in the Resource Browser (see Accessing Existing Resources).

The currently active symbol is inserted; the active symbol’s name displays at the bottom of the Resource Browser. Clicking on the active symbol button automatically displays the currently active symbol in the resource display window.

Symbols are inserted with the Symbol Insertion tool, or from the Resource Browser by dragging and dropping. Symbols can be inserted as individual objects or inserted to become part of a wall.
