Is there a simple way to "paste" the cable presets into a drawing?
I think of having the colors and description in a rectangle near the "drawing head" that shows this
On big drawings might this be helpful to identify what kind of cable that are running between units.

Hi Robert,

There isn't a simple ('automatic') way to do this; it would have to be done manually.  You can either just add example cables and notes to the Title Block after insertion, or you could create a custom symbol to be your cable 'legend' and insert this after the Title Block has gone in.

I hope this makes sense and also hope that we'll see you at ISE next week!


Kind regards,

Hi Rob!
Many thanks for your post, Right now is I creating the dogleg and color it and then write the explanations besides. It works and can be copied to my drawings in other projects as well but if i start a new project  need to figure what project i had this done so i can copy it... So just therefor would it have been nice to just Simply "paste it"
I can't manage the ISE this year, is to busy with work and i don't have 3 days over for this good event. It's a pretty.
Would have been nice to meet you there.

Hi Robert,

It's a pity that we won't see you at ISE this year.

For your Cable Key you could save what you need as a custom symbol and then just drag it into any drawing from the Symbol Browser.  See the movie "Customizing the Symbol Browser", #23 at https://www1.stardraw.com/stardraw2/sd7/movies

I hope this is helpful.
