    How do i create these junctions with Stripboard magic.

    This is a schematic of the variable voltage regulator example that was installed with the main install. I have looked in the Componant catalogue for them and i cant see them at all. I checked the help files but i couldnt find a reference to the code. If i right click then click details i get this:

    Any ideas?

    TIA

    Just arrange all the components roughly in the right place on screen, then drag lines from 1 point to another, so you'll join the positive end of C2 to Reg1 input terminal, then join the positive side of C1 to Reg1 input terminal, and so on.

    The junctions on the circuit diagram are just to make things neater, so all lines are horizontal or vertical.

    It may help to print or draw the circuit out first and tick off the connections as you do them, neat schematics are not a SM strong point. :rolleyes: (perhaps because I've never spotted & used that land symbol) :blush:

    edit: It's in Help,
    but I still don't see how to create one in the first place and I only get the last option on the demo regulator.

    Solved - hold down the <alt> key as you reach the other line, then release mouse button :clap:

    I checked the other right click option and also couldnt find it on the one i was producing. Glad im not going mad :worried:

    Well done for finding the answer :clap: . Just out of interest, how did you find out? was it trial and error?

    Thanks :rock:
