Making Schematic and Wiring Diagram
Hello everyone,
I was wondering what parallax uses for a program for making their schematics and wiring diagrams.
I need to make a wiring schematic and want to do it like parallax does.
Thanks

You may be forced to create your own by creating diagrams for each component, then incorporating them into another figure. Time consuming to say the least. Or finding them individually, also quite time consuming.

at the bottom of the first page is a drawing of the resistor:
·
Using Alt-Print Screen to grab a copy of the window and pasting it in a non-object oriented photo editor (I used MS Paint because its the only one I have access to at the moment (Photoshop is easier to work with)) erasing the labeling and isolating the bars (for easy coloration later) and saving it as a gif to reduce the range of colors (make the black bars solid black for ease of flood fill coloring·(paint bucket)·(required in MS Paint, but in Photoshop you can set the amount of color variation for the paint bucket)) produces a blank for incorporation:
·
Then you can use the paint bucket to color in the appropriate color values for the resistor bands before including in your wiring diagram:
·
Finally if you are using a program that permits you to save your GIFs with a transparency (Photoshop does, but not MS Paint, so I didn't do it for the example), paint the entire background in a color you wont use in the image (magenta is a good color) and set that color as the transparency color, that way when you incorporate the image only the component itself will be there and the background wont interfere with the breadboard picture.

I will make the wiring diagram as soon as possible.
