Smart symbols

Each folder in the Library palette can contain smart symbols.

A smart symbol is an intelligent symbol whose appearance changes dynamically with the reference scale and view. A smart symbol is composed of several display foils. One foil might contain a 2D representation of an element, while another might include the same element in 3D. Yet another foil can contain a simple representation of the element at 1:100, while another could show a complex representation of the element at 1:10.
