Library editor in vers 5.0.2

[Peter1]

Hello

I used the vers 4.0.7 for a while.
For copying a symbol from a lib to my local project lib,
I used the following way in symbol library editor:

1. select working library
2. load component
3. modify if desired
4. select working library (local lib)
5. update
6. save

In the docu of vers 5 chapter “Transfer symbol to another lib”
there is the same explaned but new icons.

After changing to vers 5.0.2 then I try the same.
At the beginning the Symbol Library Editor showes in the top line:
“There is no library selected”. Ok.
But there is no icon to “select working lib”.
I do not know how to select a working lib for further access.
Is the docu outdated, or what do I wrong ?

Hi

In v5, use copy/paste (right click).
