This section explains how take folders of symbols you've already saved, and load these folders into the Library.

Note: For loading parametric parts into the Library, see Loading a Parametric Part into the Library.

1. In this example, a few boxes, cones, and cylinders were created in TurboCAD LTE, and each saved as its own *.2CD file.
2. Here is the folder structure for these symbols. The folder "3D Primitives" was created in "My Documents\TurboCAD LTE\Symbols\My Symbols." "3D Primitives" has three sub-folders for boxes, cones, and cylinders. Each of these folders has a few *.2CD files.
   
3. There are two ways to add "3D Primitives" to the library. One way is to open Symbol Libraries, click New, and browse to "3D Primitives."
   
4. Another way to load this folder is within the library. Click Load Folder.
   
5. If you use Load Folder, browse to where you saved "3D Primitives" and load it.
   
6. Double-click "3D Primitives" to see the three sub-folders inside.
   
7. Right-click on one of the thumbnails and select Update Thumbnails. In this example, an ISO view and "Conceptual Cyan" are used, and applied to the entire category.
   
   This updates the thumbnails.
   
8. Use Up or Back to return to the three sub-folders. If you want to see all of the symbols contained in all three folders, click Expand Subfolders.
   
9. To return to the folder structure, click Expand Subfolders again.
10. To unload a folder, click Unload Libraries.
    
11. Find "3D Primitives" on the list and check the box. Then click Unload.
    
    "3D Primitives" is no longer displayed.
