  • Open the 'Misc' toolbox, and locate the exported 'traffic cone' component.
  • Use the down-arrow next to it to add it to the System Panel.
  • Create a flowchart to test the imported component:
  • Add a component macro to the flowchart, and double-click on it.
  • Click on the 'Simulation' tab, and then on the 'flash' macro that appears in the macro list.
  • Then click on 'OK'.
  • Your flowchart should now resemble the one shown below:
