Add several instruments at once

Member tool

To add a row or a block of the same instrument, for example twenty circuit breakers:

  1. Search for the instrument.
  2. Click it in the search results. A card opens with its details. For a circuit breaker, a toggle switch or a display, choose its rating, color or screen on the card first.
  3. Press Add several… and enter the Rows, the number Per row, and the Gap across and Gap down in inches. The gaps are the space between one instrument and the next, edge to edge. For two rows of ten breakers a quarter inch apart: 2, 10, 0.25 and 0.25. The card shows how many that makes and how big the block will be, and remembers your numbers for next time.
  4. Press Place. The whole block follows your pointer; click on the panel where the middle of the block should go.

Clicking a circuit breaker in the search results, pressing Add several, entering 1 row of 10 with gaps of 0.3 and 0.25 inch, pressing Place 10, and clicking on the panel where the row goes

The block goes down as one group, at the spacing you entered, and one Undo takes it all off again. You can place up to 200 instruments at a time.
