The Assembly 'Polarity Dot' only appears in 'Polarized' components. i.e.: there is no Polarity Dots on Resistors or Non-Polarized Capacitors or Inductors. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |

TH Axial parts display a line (as shown) instead of a dot by pin1, plus an optional square pin. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
