Title: Stand up / vertical diode symbol.

I want to verify. In this diagram/symbol.

Is the "circle" side of the PCB symbol the banded side of the diode?

Hi,

If you look closely, the circle side has a gray bar inside the circle. The bar is the band.

Also, IIRC, if you open the symbol in the library editor, you will see the pins are named "C" and "A", or "K" and "A". Cathode and Anode.

On my library, I moved the bar outside the circle, so it is more obvious.
