Howto change the symbol of imported model

QSPICE
1

When importing models of diodes into qspice the visual symbol can be selected by supplying the type parameter in the model data:

  • type LED will pick the LED-symbol
  • type Schottky will pick the Schottky-symbol
  • type Zener will pick the Zener-symbol

When importing a mosfet the symbol for N-Channel MOSFET Transistor will be used.
How can I change the symbol to be Monolithic N-Channel MOSFET Transistor?

Can I modify a symbol after a component is placed?

I tried to change the text in the Symbol Properties/Basics/Description from
Resistor(USA Style Symbol) to Resistor(UK Style Symbol), but there is no change in the visual representation of the symbol.

You can modify symbol after its created, but in your case, with a .model, you can use method #2 to quickly complete what you want for embedded .model symbol.

@KSKelvin thanks for pointing out #2 workflow. Adding a part and then pasting the model data in the properties is no extra work.
