Creating parts and connectors in 16.2

Cannon Fodder
Cannon Fodder over 15 years ago

I've used orcad for years but we've upgraded to 16.2 a year ago  from 10.5.  This is the first chance I'vehad to use the new tool and I'm lost.  

I want to create a footprint in PCB Designer for a USB Mini B connector but can't find any tutorials on part creation or anything.  Are there some resouces someone can point me too?

 

Thanks in advance

    When I try to add a pin, I get a no padstack specified error.  How do I define the padstack for the symbol?
