A basic circuit is selected by clicking (Left Mouse Button) on a BC in the library (DO NOT KEEP THE MOUSE BUTTON PUSHED IN, A SINGLE CLICK WILL DO!). Once selected the mouse cursor is replaced by the respective basic circuit which can now be dropped into the drawing canvas by once clicking the left mouse button again. Multiple basic circuits from the same type can be successively dropped into the drawing canvas. The actual cursor mode can be undone by clicking the right mouse button or the escape function.

Use pre-built Snippets from the BC library
As part of the The Hysopt BC library , Hysopt also provides includes pre-built snippets, which are commonly-used configurations for a particular BC under the form of snippets. Snippets can be specific base circuits (BCs). These snippets can be easily accessed by clicking the expand icon 
in located at the bottom-right corner of a base circuit in within the library. The expand icon will open the snippet This action opens a pop-up window with displaying all available snippets for that particular the selected base circuit. When selecting Once a snippet from the pop-up window, the snippet is is chosen, it will be pasted as a group onto grouped component to your canvas.
Snippets allow users to quickly build models and reduce complexity regarding control strategy, as proven control logic is integrated in the snippet.
Base circuits for which no snippets are available do not display the expand icon . You can always request a new snippet by contacting support@hysopt.com by adding the desired configuration in the attachmentsUsing snippets streamlines the process of building models and simplifies the implementation of control strategies, as the snippets come with integrated, proven control logic.
For base circuits that do not have associated snippets, the expand icon will not be visible. If you require a new snippet, you can request it by emailing support@hysopt.com and attaching the desired configuration.

By selecting a snippet, you also paste the snippet to your Hysopt clipboard so you can paste the same snippet quickly multiple times. |

The far most important tools to navigate across your model are 'ZOOMING' and 'PANNING'. You can zoom in and zoom out using the mouse scroll wheel. Push the right mouse button to pan the canvas. Sometimes a 'zoom to fit (Ctrl+F) might be useful.
...
To pan the canvas, you can push the right mouse button. If you prefer to use the scroll wheel to pan, you can adjust this in the user preferences.

Connecting the basic circuits with piping tools

After the Ctrl+V action, the copied part of the system can be dragged to the desired location in the drawing canvas before pasting itdropping it on the canvas with Ctrl+D.

Replacing components (Ctrl+H)
Basic circuits can be replaced by other types of basic circuits by using the replace functionality (Ctrl+H, see operations button). Multiple basic circuits can be replaced at once. E.g. in the system illustrated below, the three active mixing circuits are replaced by three passive mixing circuits with a single replace operation.
