Associating multiple symbols with one package

MEQueen
MEQueen over 11 years ago

Much like there are two symbols available for a resistor -- horizontal and vertical -- I have a second symbol for a part that I want to associate with the same package that already has one symbol associated with it.  I have successfully created the symbol, but it is orphaned . . . it has no associated package (see attached image).  I want to associate this new second symbol with the existing package.  Have searched documentation and forums to no avail.  Any suggestions?

Using Part Developer in Allegro DEHDL 16.5.

    Are the pin names for sym_2 identical to sym_1?  If so, I think it should associate itself just by clicking on it.
