Figure 4: Screen of Capture for a new project before the circuit is drawn. The Schematic
window is active and the toolbar on the right is therefore visible.
• The dropdown list in the middle contains recently used components so that you can
select them quickly when drawing your circuit. We haven’t drawn anything yet so
the list is empty.
• The next set of four buttons are for zooming in and out so that the circuit is drawn
on the screen at a convenient scale.
• We won’t use the next set in this tutorial; they are more useful for larger circuits
and laying out PCBs.
• The next button is important because it controls whether components are placed on
a grid or can be moved freely. Always use the grid (which is the default) or you will
