The process of creating a multi-terminal definition begins with inserting the attributes. That is done with the 1. Insert attributes command.

 

Make sure that you insert them in a area of the current drawing sheet where you have plenty of space, and no irrelevant objects nearby.

 

Place the attribute package in the middle of the free area that you work in, as shown in the figure below.

It is possible to adjust the attributes directly after you have inserted them, but in most cases it is better to wait until you are finished with the graphics. In that way you can make sure that the attributes are correctly positioned relative to the graphics.
