Insert connection label (Component)
Connection labels can be inserted into scheme drawings, wiring diagrams,
and 2D layout drawings. However, if you wish to place a connection label
into a terminal strip or report drawing, you must first insert it into
a scheme drawing, then move it into the terminal strip or report drawing
using the Cut/Paste commands.

Menu: Line diagram > Connection

Menu: Cabinet layout > Connection

Dockable panel > Contextual menu of component: Insert

Note that the icon used to launch the command has an arrow showing an
option. There are two ways to insert connection labels. See also the chapter
Insert Connection label (Manufacturer
part) for more details.
This command works in the same way as scheme
symbol insertion. The dockable panel changes to display the placement
options.
The properties dialog box opens
when the connection label is inserted into the drawing. You can also create
a new mark, even if it should be associated with an existing mark.
In the dockable panel, you can select several existing components to
insert their connection labels. The Insertion order
dialog box opens to help you to manage the associated symbols and to define
the order to insert the connection labels.
