"Symbol libraries" refer to a collection of pre-made graphic symbols, icons, or objects that can be used in software for design, illustration, or technical drawing. These symbols may include various shapes, symbols, pictograms, textures, or vector graphics and are intended to expedite the design process by providing commonly used elements.
Typical features of software in the realm of "symbol libraries" include:
Predefined symbols: The software contains a variety of predefined symbols organized by themes or categories, such as symbols for electronics, architecture, nature, office supplies, etc.
Custom symbols: Users can create their own symbols and add them to the library for later reuse or sharing with other users.
Search and filter functions: The software provides search and filter functions to help users quickly find the desired symbol in the library by searching for keywords, categories, or tags.
Preview options: Users can preview the symbols in the library to review their appearance and properties before inserting them into their design project.
Drag-and-drop functionality: The software allows users to easily drag and drop symbols from the library into their design project, speeding up the workflow.
