Thanks for making this sticky!

Please see the video here:

Hi Brom,
i like to create a component without the wizard.
I like to create a component with the "new item"-button. Then i chose the name of component, select the package "USER" and "default reference" an click on "OK"-button. And now?
How going on? I can't draw a schematic symbol or a pcb symbol. I will create a NEW component. In will NOT modify an existing one. Do you understand me?
Help me, please.
