Improved Symbol Search

Each SmartDraw template comes with a SmartPanel docked to the left of the drawing area. This panel contains all the relevant tools and most commonly used symbols needed to create that specific diagram.

For diagrams that require a large variety of symbols like floor plans, landscape designs, AWS diagrams, and others, it would be impossible to guess every symbol you'll need to complete your visual.

To help you find just the right symbol for any diagram, this update makes it easier to search SmartDraw's extensive symbol collection and pin any combination of custom symbol sets to your drawing.

Simply click on the blue "Search symbols" text at the top of the SmartPanel to open the Symbols tab with a search bar. Type any keyword and hit enter or click the magnifying glass to search.

Any result you pin will appear in the list of libraries in the Symbols section of the SmartPanel. You can scroll through them or use the carats (small black arrows to the right of the name) to expand and collapse any library.

Click the X to unpin the library from the SmartPanel.

You can drag libraries up and down the stack to reorder them.
