![enter image description here][1] you can use AXIAL-0.6 [1]: /editor/20161012/57fdd7c52cf86.png

Thanks, Am trying to write "AXIAL-0.6" in the PACKAGE text box in the custom attributes in the schematic - but the tool doesnt allow me to do this ![enter image description here][1] [1]: /editor/20161012/57fe27d55732b.png

You just need to update the package string to AXIAL-0.6 and convert to PCB to see what looks like.

`Update the symbol's package` does not list all the packages available in EasyEDA. It only lists: 1. those under **General Packages**; 2. those that the you have created yourself or edited and saved to **My Parts**; 3. those that you have clicked the little heart icon to add to your **Favorites* All of these sections can be found in the left hand Navigation panel. To update your resistor package to `AXIAL-0.6` either: a) just type the text directly into the 'package' text box in the right hand **Part Attributes** panel; or b) in a schematic, symbol, PCB or footprint canvas, do a **SHIFT+F** search for `AXIAL-0.6`. This will return: ![enter image description here][1] Then click on the little heart icong for the one just showing the footprint (not the one showing the schematic symbol *and* the footprint). Option (b) is best to do because if you do option (a) then you will need to do option (b) anyway to place the footprint into your **Favorites** ready for when you want to convert to PCB.

Thank you Dillon and Andyfierman - your detailed explanation really helped and I followed the option B. Your quick support is so encouraging for first time tool users like me
