    Posted: 05.Jan.2012 at 12:25
Hi,
  I have managed to create a Panel Icon using our company logo, but i would like to create a sub menu using one off the existing Panel Icons (i.e Circuit breaker/ Fuses) but when i go to Icon Wizard and select the Circuit breaker icon and try to copy the icon into my company icon Autocad shuts down. i have tried to find where the icon is located but to no prevail.
 
What i am trying to achieve is i would like to create a library of company Icons and symbols using the existing icons provided with Autocad electrical but all under our company logo icon. This is so everyone using Autocad can easily see our company symbols we have created.
 
Thanks
Adrian

Are you trying to insert a symbol icon?

I don't understand it when you say that you are trying to copy the icon INTO my company icon.

Symbol icons have to be in the form of an AutoCAD slide file (SLD) or a PNG file.

Hi Again John,
  I have managed to go around this problem, but i was trying to copy an existing icon as a sub menu of my Company logo. i.e You would have my company logo and once selected would have the Circuit breaker Icon. But i have just copied my company logo as a sub menu under the Circuit Breaker Icon so it is the otherway around, click on circuit breakers and the select company logo icon for various circuit breakers that my company use.
