Creating Diagrams - Default Drawing Values
The Default Drawing Values for New Objects dialog (shown below) allows you to specify the
formatting to be applied to new display objects and to save or load the
formatting styles to an auxiliary file. Select Options >> Default Drawing Values from the
main menu to open the dialog.

Creating Diagrams - Insert Palettes
Once you have created your system model and loaded it in to PowerWorld,
you can use insert palettes to drag-and-drop buses, substations, areas or
zones on to your system diagrams.
Insert Palette
-
To insert a display object, left-click on the object name in the
insert palette, then drag the cursor (while holding down the
left-mouse button) to the desired location on your diagram.
-
When you release the mouse button, the Bus Options dialog
opens. If you have already specified default drawing values,
click OK to insert the object. Otherwise, specify the
desired drawing values on the Bus Options dialog then click OK.
-
The Bus Palette automatically updates to show the newly inserted
display object under the Displayed column. If you left-click
in the palette on the name of the bus you just inserted, you will
notice that the Undisplayed Neighbors column updates to show all
system buses having ties to the displayed bus.
The Insert Palettes can prove extremely useful - whether your system
contains seven buses, or 70,000 buses - especially when creating
diagrams displaying system buses either in close geographic proximity,
or of the same nominal voltage level.
