    Creating a Component Library

    To create a component library:

    1. Create and save model, ensuring that the name is different from any other template names.
    2. Select File > Options > Application Options.
    3. In the Options dialog, select Assembly > Component Libraries to display the Component Libraries page.
    4. Select the This model is a component library option.
    5. Save the model again.

      You can now create components in this model to generate a Component Library.
