Rearranging a Component Library

The components in the component library can be rearranged according to their usefulness and the desire of the user.

In the tree view you may drag separate symbols or also entire groups of one level to another position.

            Please mark a component in the lower section of the group:

 

            Drag the marked component to the top left:

 

FluidSIM adds the symbol to the applicable position. The order of the other symbols will be maintained. FluidSIM keeps the symbols from being on top of each other or from creating “gaps”.

You may also relocate an entire group including all subgroups.

            Close all component groups:

 

            Move the group “Electrical controls” up:

 

  You cannot change the hierarchy's layer structure this way. You may only relocate symbols and groups within the same level. Relocating a group will automatically relocate the entire branch below the group.

In the folder view you may freely relocate and rearrange the symbols. Particularly, “gaps” are allowed to exist between the symbols; FluidSIM does not relocate them next to each other like in the tree view.

            Select the folder view at View and open the group “Hydraulic” and then “Actuators”.

            Enlarge the window of the component library.

            Using the rubber band, select for example the bottom row:

 

            Drag the selected components, for example up and to the right:

 

            It is also possible to rearrange the components in the library horizontally, in just a few steps:

 

  It is not possible for the user to add components to or delete components from the standard component libraries. However, own libraries can be constructed at the user's will.
