--- Comment #4 from testelor at yahoo.com ---
Even if this is many years old, the last reply was a question.

2Fry didn't make it clear where his symbol and library were installed, so there
are three options:

1. In the folder where LTspice is installed. This means the symbol (.asy) in
./lib/sym/ and the library (.sub) in ./lib/sub/.

This is not a recommended way of installing them, since any subsequent attempts
at sending the schematic to someone else will make it impossible for the
receiver to correctly display the schematic due to the receiver not having
those symbol/library installed.

Exception, of course, being the case in which the receiver has them, which is
unlikely, particularly with custom created parts, such as this.

Furthermore, any updates could overwrite/delete the files at any time, even if
that's something that I, after more than 10 years of using LTspice, haven't
seen. That is not to say it cannot happen.

2. They are installed in the current schematic's folder. In this case, placing
the symbol with F2 is done by changing the "Top directory" form the drop-down
menu, at the top of the F2 window.

3. They are anywhere else, in which case they cannot be accessed directly from
LTspice, only the library with the .lib or .inc SPICE commands. The symbol will
be inaccessible.

 For the first two points, if the symbol is not there, it probably means that
it was freshly created, and the user should close LTspice and then reopen it.

Since 2Fry didn't specify the steps, exactly, I can only suspect he may have
created the symbol (and library) and either didn't close LTspice to let it
refresh its list, or he didn't choose the "top directory" properly. If I am
wrong, I'll let 2Fry  point the error.
