Part IV: Creating and Using Libraries
Tip
You may have difficulty expanding the width of the column that contains the configuration names, thus making
it difficult or impossible to read the ends of the long config names. However, like Excel, you can expand the
height of the rows, which causes the config names to wrap, as shown in Figure 19.20. n
Summary
Smart Components can automate the placement of a main component, as well as associated
mounting features and components. It can also offer automatic resizing options, depending on the
geometry to which it is mated. The setup for Smart Components varies from simple to complex,
with auto-sizing causing most of the complexity. Libraries, and in particular smart library parts like
Smart Components, can vastly simplify repetitive tasks.
