Important: Only the latest version will receive updates, new features, and bug fixes! The usage section in this documentation describes the latest version. In older versions, the disposition of the elements in the plugin's screen might be different. Some features might not be present or have different behavior.

Installation and requirements

Installation procedures for latest and older versions are described below.

Requirements (all versions)

You will need inkscapeMadeEasy plugin installed. Check the compatibility table above to know the version you need.

Installation procedure (v1.0 only)

circuitSymbols was developed using Inkscape 1.0 in Linux (Kubuntu 18.04). It should work in different OSs too as long as all requirements are met.

Install inkscapeMadeEasy, version 1.0 (latest). Follow the instructions in the manual page. Note: LaTeX text is used in circuitSymbols if the support is activated (nicer results), otherwise regular text elements will be used.
circuitSymbols installation
1. Go to Inkscape's extension directory with a file browser. Your inkscape extension directory can be accessed by opening Inkscape and selecting Edit > Preferences > System. Look for the item User Extensions field. There is a button on the right of the field that will open a file explorer window in that specific folder.
2. Create a subfolder in the extension directory with the name circuitSymbols. Important: Be careful with upper and lower case letters. You must write as presented above.
3. Download circuitSymbols files and place them inside the directory you just created.
  
  You don't have to copy all files from Github. The files you will need are inside the latest folder. In the end you must have the following files and directories in your Inkscape extension directory.
  
  LaTeX users: the file circuitSymbolsPreamble.tex contains the macros defined in this plugin. You can add your own macros to this file. You can also add macros to inkscapeMadeEasy/basicLatexPackages.tex. In this case the same macros will be accessible by all plugins that employ inkscapeMadeEasy.

Usage

This extension is presented in two menu entries: General and Semiconductor. Both can be found under extensions > fsmMLK > Circuit symbols menu.

The first generates symbols of commonly used circuit elements like resistors, capacitors, inductors, switches and various independent and dependent voltage/current sources.

The second generates semiconductor elements like diodes, transistors and operational amplifiers.

Each entry has several tabs. Depending on which tab is on top, the extension will create different elements in your document as soon as you click on Apply button (or check live preview).

In addition to these elements, both menu entries has extra tabs to generate signal labels and annotations. They are repeated in both entries to facilitate its use.

GENERAL menu entry

RLC tab

In this tab you can create resistors, capacitors, inductors and fuses. The section Voltage and current indications serves to add voltage or current annotation arrows to the symbol and adjust their orientations.

Type: You can select the type of bipole. The available types are:

Important: 2-terminal potentiometer option was removed. You can have the same symbol with resistor + 'Variable' option turned on.

Standard: Here you can choose the standard. There are two options, IEEE Std 315-1975 (american) and IEC 60167 (europe). This option affects RLC tab only.

Orientation: Rotation angle in degrees.

Extra wire length: You can adjust the length of the wires. You can choose any integer number between -10 and 10. (Defaults is 0).

Note: Keep in mind that negative numbers can cause current arrow indication to overlap other elements of the symbol. You can manually adjust if needed.

Value: Literal or numeric value of the bipole. If you type numeric values, you can use M,k,m,u,n,p to indicate multiplier unit. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$. Also for LaTeX, there are a couple of functions to specify values in terms of complex impedances. See image below for examples.

Variable: If selected, adds variable arrow on top of the symbol. This option has no effect in fuses and 3-terminal potentiometers.

Add unit: If selected, unit will be automatically added to the value. The unit will be selected accordingly with the type (ohm for resistors and generic bipole (impedance), farad for capacitors, henry for inductors).

Note: If LaTeX support is enabled, the unit will be inserted using siunitx package.

Voltage and current indications section

Sign convention: Switches between passive and active sign conventions. This option affects the symbol only if you add voltage and current indications.

Add voltage/current indications: Add voltage drop and current arrow indications. On the side there are fields for the labels of the annotations. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.

Invert V/I directions: invert the directions of the annotations. Keep in mind that they will still follow the sign convention you selected.

Sources tab

In this tab you can create voltage and current sources. The sources can be independent or dependent (contolled).

This tab contains two subtabs, Independent and Dependent. The 'Apply' button will execute the action associated to the subtab that is on the top.

There is also a common section called Voltage and current indications that will serve both types of sources to add voltage or current annotation arrows to the symbol and adjust their orientations.

Independent source subtab

Type: Here you can select the type of source. The available types are presented below.

Standard: Here you can choose the standard. There are two options, IEEE Std 315-1975 (american) and IEC 60167 (europe). This option affects independent sources only. Old current source style (DIN?) is not affected by this option.

Orientation: Rotation angle in degrees. See RLC tab section for examples.

Extra wire length: You can adjust the length of the wires. See RLC tab section for examples.

Invert source direction: invert the direction of the source.

Variable: If selected, adds variable arrow on top of the symbol. See RLC tab section for examples.

Add unit: If selected, unit will be automatically added to the value. The unit will be selected accordingly with the type (V for voltages and A for current).

Note: If LaTeX support is enabled, the unit will be inserted using siunitx package.

Dependent source subtab

Type: Here you can select the type of source. The available types are presented below.

Standard: Here you can choose the standard. There are two options, IEEE Std 315-1975 (american) and IEC 60167 (europe). This option affects dependent sources only.

Orientation: Rotation angle in degrees. See RLC tab section for examples.

Extra wire length: You can adjust the length of the wires. See RLC tab section for examples.

Invert source direction: invert the direction of the source.

Control: You can select the type of control, votage or current.

Gain: control gain of the source. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.

Control signal: Label of the control signal (voltage or current, depending on the type of control). If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.

Draw congtrol indications: If selected, the extension will create control indication arrows in all possible directions. This allow you to choose from them the arrow that fits your situation.

Voltage and current indications section

Sign convention: Switches between passive and active sign conventions. This option affects the symbol only if you add voltage and current indications. See RLC tab section for examples.

Voltage label: The contents of the text box affects current sources only. For voltage sources, the label will be the same of the value. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.
Current label: The contents of the text box affects voltage sources only. For current sources, the label will be the same of the value. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.

Invert V or I directions: invert the directions of the indications. If activated, a negative sign will be automatically added to:

Voltage annotation in voltage sources
Current annotation in current sources

Switches tab

In this tab you can create switches. The section Commuting information allows you to configure commutation annotation. The section Voltage and current indications serves to add voltage or current annotation arrows to the symbol and adjust their orientations.

Number of poles/throws: Here you can select the number of poles (1 to 4) and throws (1 to 8) of the switch (nPmT). See examples below.

Orientation: Rotation angle in degrees. See RLC tab section for examples.

Extra wire length: You can adjust the length of the wires. See RLC tab section for examples.

Label: Set the text of the label of the switch. If LaTeX support is enabled, this text will be included in a math environment $...$.

Push-button: Sets the switch to push-button. Activating this option will force number of throws to one (nT=1).

Current state: Here you can select which output channel is connected to the input, if any (open switch). If the number selected here is larger than the number of outputs (nT), the last output will be connected.

Commutating information section

Commutating arrow: Adds annotation arrow indicating change of state. See image below

Commuting text: Adds text near the commuting arrow. Useful to express the time when the switch changes state. See image below

Direction: invert commuting arrow direction. Used only if nT > 1

Problem for a new user

Hi!

I have downloaded Inkscape, inkscapeMadeEasy and CircuitSymbols. I think I followed every step. At this point, I didn't download Latex so I did remove that one # as it was told.

Now I have tried to use CircuitSymbols at Inkscape, but I get this error message, when I click use/apply-button.

Have I done something wrong or is this a bug? Thank you!

Traceback (most recent call last):

More MOSFET Symbol Options

Hi, thanks for your efforts, it helps me a lot on Mac to draw circuit schematics.
However, I'm an analog IC designer, and the symbols of MOSFET are a little different from those we usually use in conferences like ISSCC shown below. So I mean whether you could add some options to add/move the circle of the MOSFET symbols.

Inkscape 0.91 on Mac OS X - Can't draw any symbol

I can't get the extension to work.

The error I receive is:

If I comment the remove_temp_files(self) method in textext.py (lines 515 to 518) and run the pdflatex <tempfile.tex> <switches> command in a terminal, I can compile the .tex file correctly.

If I disable Latex altogether, I can get the symbol with the raw string as a value.

Installation suggestion

Hi! Thank you for the package(s), it seems really cool and I wish I came across it sooner.

I had an issue on installation that might be worth adding a line into the installation instructions. I was lazy and cloned the git repos into .../inkscape/extensions and then created a symbolic link to the files in .../latest. I also tried copying the files up a level to match your tree shown.
This didn't work and I was banging my head trying to figure out why - it just seems Inkscape does not like git repos in its extensions folder. I tried this on Ubuntu and MacOS. Works fine when files are just copied from elsewhere. I'd be happy to submit a PR if you'd like.

Disabling support to avoid latex

Thanks for your awesome work !
You said that LaTeX was used in circuitSymbols if the support is activated.
I don't want to use LaTeX, so I want to disable the support but I don't know how !

Extension greyed out

Hi,
I wanted to use your library for my thesis work, I installed all the plugins and extensions, but the option is greyed out as shown.

any suggestions?

Can't have a component without value

OS: Mac OS 12.6
Inkscape version: 1.2.1
inkscapeCircuitSymbols version: 05b434f

Hello, I'm trying to place a component without a value, but it keeps automatically adding one. In my case, I want to place a resistor with no value, but it adds a 'Z' by default.

Here are the screenshots.

Fuses are missing

Circuit symbols

Hello,
I'm using Inkscape 92.4 (dutch version) on Win10 and installed the extension "Circuit Symbols" (and InkscapeMadeEasy) exactly like indicated in the readme file and as on your website.
I can see the topic in the menu under "fsmMLK" but I got an error by using it. The error = "Traceback (most recent call last):
File "circuitSymbols.py", line 8, in
from drawAmpOp import ampOp
ImportError: No module named drawAmpOp"
I can't find the problem. Does anyone have a solution for that?
Thanks

Works great on ubuntu 16.04, minor comments

Smooth installation on ubuntu 16.04 with tex live, inkscape 0.91, an impressive work and package!
Small remarks:

For inkscapeMadeEasy, I had to install steinmetz.sty which was missing, I did it with sudo apt install texlive-science (ref. this tex.stackexchange)
For inkscapeCircuitSymbols, in your Installation and requirements directory structure, you forgot to mention circuitSymbols_general.inx, which makes that only the semiconductor menu entry appears.
you could mention in your readme that the menu entries are found under extensions > fsmMLK > Circuit symbols.

Cheers!

Issue with siunitx (old version?)

Thanks for the great work! I tried to run the extension as-is but got exceptions about:

There being no "per" parameter in the siunitx package
There being no "\newunit" command

In order to make the extension work in Inkscape 1.1 (I am using MikTex 21.6-x64 on Windows 7) I had to update the circuitSymbolsPreamble.tex as follows: remove the [per=slash] on line 2, and replace \newunit with \DeclareSIUnit

The updated working file is shown below. I'm not sure whether this is an issue with the siunitx 3.x version or whether there is some other breaking change that is causing this.

Does not work on Inkscape 64bit version

Installed the 32bit version and worked.
Thanks for the lib. Its great.

update needed for Inkscape version 1.0

Hello,
Thank you for providing this extension for Inkscape users!

This is just to let you know that most 3rd party Inkscape extensions, like this one, probably will not work with the upcoming new Inkscape version, the long-awaited version 1.0.

Here is the info you need to update this extension, so that it will work with 1.0 and future versions.
https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php?title=Updating_your_Extension_for_1.0

If you have further questions, you can contact Inkscape developers via mailing lists, forum, or the chatroom.

If you have already updated it, please disregard this message.

All best,
brynn

Orientation of labels

Hi,
it would be quite helpful if the labels could be rotated as well.

Length of connection pins adjustable

As the title says it would be really nice if the length of the connection pins is adjustable.
For me, it's too long for making compact schematics.

Would be nice if it's possible.

It gives me an error, when I clicked Apply

I am getting this error on the Inskcape Console:

Configuration;

OS: Windows 10
Python: python 3.10.6

I am using latest version of "textext" and "inkscapeCircuitSymbols"

What I think is that there may be some missing package in MikTex.

Are there any plans to add siunitx version 2 compatibility?

Doesn't work: Problem with 'parseColorPicker'

Hi, thanks for this extension.

I just installed it on Inkscape 1.0.2-2 but get the following error whenever I try to insert a circuit symbol:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "circuitSymbols.py", line 567, in
circuit.run()
File "C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\inkex\base.py", line 140, in run

File "circuitSymbols.py", line 231, in effect
[self.voltageColor, alpha] = inkDraw.color.parseColorPicker(so.voltColor, so.colorPickerVolt)
ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)

I guess it's really a problem with the inkDraw package?

Electric symbol requests

Please leave a message below with electric symbols you would like to have.

Please, if possible, add a picture of the symbol to help my life. =)

Error when generating symbols

Installed circuitsymbols on Windows 10.
in some cases it works. e.g. to draw the GND symbol.
In most cases a window opens complaining for an error.

As an exmaple when trying to draw a switch.

How to troubleshoot

Hi, Have just got Circuit Symbols partially working for the first time on Windows 10.
Originally attempted to use 1.02 x64 MSI install of Inkscape. Could not find the extn in the menu.
Saw reported x64 issue reported by someone else so reverted to Inkscape 1.0 x86 MSI install on a 64 bit Windows 10
Can now see extn listed General and Semiconductor
Selection extension seemed to hang after selecting a diode - fatal.
Restart Inkscape. Had success selecting a resistor.
Attempted to insert an Inductor - extension hung again - fatal.

Grateful for any tips on testing the extension more systematically.

european and ameriсan style

It would be nice to add european and american style to bipoles. Design is very similar to circuitikz. It also would be nice to add circuitikz export. I have been searching for circuitikz gui for 2 weeks and eventually found.

Not working

I can not click on general and semiconductors option under the circuitSymbols

scaling of symbols and fonts ?

Hi,

I've noticed that the symbols generated are somewhat large-ish. When i scale them down the text scales down and then becomes too small to read.

I really did read through the documentation for some sort of scaling setting and did not see one.

Is there a way to set the scaling ?

General does not work but semiconductor works normally

The semiconductor works pretty fine. But when I use the General it returns such an error

Nothing happens when inserting symbol

Hi,
On Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit system. Tried to install Inkscape 0.92.4, 32 bit version to use the CircuitSymbols. When trying to insert any symbol in InkScape I see a window flashing by really quickly and then disappears. If I press the Apply button repeatedly I'm able to read the text: 'General' working, please wait.

But nothing happens. No symbol is inserted. I have tried with and without LaTex, doesn't make any difference.

Am I doing something wrong?

Best regards.
David

latex use is broken with textext 1.3.0 and miktex

After a considerable amount of effort making sure textext was working correctly, I still get an indecipherable error when latex is enabled. The good news is that circuitsymbols works if i disable latex.
I would not be surprised if this is the result of yet another missing package in the latex installation (that was the problem i encountered with textext).

I installed various module of fsmMLK (MadeEasy, CircuitSymbols, plot functions, ... following exactly the instructions.

The extension works correctly if I disable LaTeX support, but I'm creating a diagram for use in a LaTeX document so I'd rather keep it on if at all possible. That suggests that the problem is to do with LaTeX, though.

As per issue #4, I tried installing pstoedit (I didn't have it before), but I still get the same error. Any ideas?

Added MOSFET support

I added MOSFET support and thought maybe you want the code to include it in you plugin...

Connecting Components

Hi, is there a way to connect components with wire that automatically rearranges when the components are moved. I see inkscape has a create diagram connects feature, but the connects stem from the center of the components so it doesn't work. Is there a way to implement this sort of functionality, or is there a different function that i am unaware of? Thanks

BJT arrow disappear

When I have to draw two BJT, after clicking 'Apply' to draw the 2nd one, the arrow on the first one disappear.

I'm new to inkscape and managed to get this to work. However, everything I insert a new symbol, I get the following message:
