You can drag library features to a plane, or anywhere in the graphics area. If you drag a library feature to the graphics area, you are prompted to select a plane. You can also pre-select the plane.
To place a library feature on a plane, right-click the plane, and select Show, to select the plane before dragging the library feature from the Design Library. This enables you to select the plane border and the plane name when placing the library feature.
To insert a library feature on a plane:
- Open the part to which you want to add the library feature.
- Drag the library feature from the Design Library into the graphics area.
- Place the pointer on plane border or plane name.
If you drag a library feature to a reference plane, the drop point defaults to the center of the selected reference plane.

- Select a configuration.
