The panel displays in this mode when nothing is selected. In the schematic library editor, the properties of the currently active symbol, such as the default designator and the description, are edited in the Properties panel in Symbol mode.Refer to the Pin object for more information. Make sure the hotspot (the end by which you hold the pin) is away from the component body. Use the Edit » Move commands to change the display order if the pins become hidden behind the component body. Objects placed in the library editor are stacked in the order they are placed.Schematic symbols are created in Altium Designer's schematic symbol editor. Schematic symbols are created by placing drawing objects to represent the component body and pins that represent the physical pins on the actual component. This type of component is also called a multi-part component. One component symbol can represent the entire physical component, or the component can be defined by multiple sub-parts where each sub-part represents some logical entity within the physical component (e.g., each AND gate in a quad AND gate component, or the coil and contact sets in a relay). This should be done to comply with the requirements of your organization and the design standards you choose to adopt. How a component is represented, i.e. the look of the symbol and arrangement of component pins, is up to the designer. The schematic symbol typically includes a shape that can reflect the function of the component and one or more pins.
