From the Content Librarian, you can insert symbols automatically, instead of choosing Symbol, Insert on the Draw menu. This feature is available through the Symbol page tab of the Content Explorer. If you delete an inserted symbol, the insertion gap remains. To restore a line, either draw a connecting line between the two endpoints of the remaining line, or click Undo on the Edit menu immediately after inserting the symbol. To insert a symbol in a line or polyline 1 Click the Symbol page tab on the Content Librarian. 2 Click the Insert Symbol button at the bottom of the Content Librarian. 3 Click and drag the symbol into the drawing. 4 (optional) Enter a custom opening width in the Opening Width text box on the edit bar and press ENTER. The default setting uses the width of the symbol extent. 5 Click a point on a line, polyline, or polygon for the basepoint of the symbol. 6 Click a second point to establish the direction AutoSketch draws the symbol in relation to the first point entered. To insert a symbol at a specific point along a line or polyline 1 Click the Symbol page tab on the Content Librarian. 2 Click the Insert Symbol button at the bottom of the Content Librarian. 3 Click and drag the symbol into the drawing.
