I use this functional all the time, especially when I'm not drawing a complete circuit, but just want to demonstrate something quickly.

Designing a Circuit

Designing a circuit is really quick when you know how you want it to be. Click on the component or drag it into your canvas to add it. Then click on a connection point to start drawing a wire. Click on another connection point to finish the wire. Double click if you want to finish the wire outside of a connection point.

If you can't see the component you need in the library right away, just type in the first few characters of the component you want in the component library, and the matching components will appear.
