- [Instructor] If we know that we want to use blocks
that we've created in the future,
it's always a good idea to save those blocks.
And what I like to do is save them in a design library
that can be referenced later on.
So all you have to do is select a block,
right click on it, and go to Save Block.
This is going to bring up
the Save as dialog box, and you can see here
it's automatically gone to my design library
because that's my default location for blocks.
I'm just going to go into the blocks here,
type in a name, and then hit Save.
Now if I go over to my design library on the right,
I'm going to hit Refresh, and if I scroll over,
I can see that block that I just inserted right there.
You'll notice that it didn't change the name of the block
in this sketch.
It's not going to do that.
If I hit Ctrl + Q, it's not going to do that.
It only changed it for down here
because I saved that block in a new location.
It's like doing a Save as,
like you would do with a part feature,
and then saving that part in that location.
It's pretty easy to save the block.
You can pretty much save it at any point.
When you're editing, you can be in Edit Sketch.
You don't have to be in this top level mode.
All you have to do is right click
on the specific block you want to save,
and you can go ahead and do that.
The same applies for when you're working
in drawings, as well.
You can also save blocks from inside of drawings.
Same thing as here.
