Component Assistant

The Component Assistant is a mode of Components Library view. It guides you during the selection of components, that is basic application building blocks. You will have to answer a series of questions that finally lead to a selection of a component that suits best for a required function. In this mode, the Components Library view consists of the following parts:

• History navigation buttons and the history line showing answers for already answered questions. You can walk through the history using the arrow buttons or by clicking the individual items.
• A box with a current question.
• A list of available answers for the current question.

  If the answer already corresponds to a single component (it has an icon of the component and there is a [component name] at the end of the list line) and user double-clicks it, it is added into the project. Also, you can right-click on the line to open the pop-up menu of the component, allowing to add it into the project or view its documentation (for details, see Components Library view topic).

  If more questions are necessary for the component selection, the line with the answer contains a group icon and in brackets a number of components that still can possibly be selected. After clicking on such line a next question is displayed.

This mode of Components Library does not offer addition of processor components. If you would like to add another processor component, switch to processors tab.
