![]() That means linking vaults to traditional libraries is out: So I frantically google and get Help on how to install a library component from the new Supplier Search feature, awesome! I create a component library file and follow the instructions (it's convoluted and hidden away, but lets run with it): So I search for a part and up it comes, this is great! But nope, whatever I search for its doesn't have schematic symbol or footprint. Ok, so let's log into Altium's component Vault. So let's try the vault system search from the main menu. No icon, no mention option, nothing in the place part dialog, nothing. Ok, so let's try the new Supplier parts integration they have. Nope, they have bugger all, classic Altium, good to see things haven't changed, but I kind of expected they all be online now, so ok. Only two libraries are installed (typical Altium, nothing changed there it seems) Ok, so I can download and install libraries the old fashioned way, but of course they froze those back back at AD10, I knew that: Ok, so I can install them from the local installed libraries. ![]() So I load up AD16 and want to start placing a part on a new schematic sheet. So I get a new AD16 licence and I figure surely they have improved the library system with the Supplier Search that looks great, Octopart etc. But I've only ever used up to AD10 and regular locall libraries. ![]() So I've been using Altium my entire career, I even worked there for 4 years. ![]()
