Is there any way to add new supplier in the EMX supplier list? Or is there any way to create our own supplier in EMX? Can anyone help me to solve this......

    There are three steps to add new suppliers to EMX component library:

    1. There is a 'supplier.txt' file in each component folder. Use a text editor to add new suppliers.
    2. Create folder in the same component folder. The folder name needs to coincide with the text in 'supplier.txt'. The easiest way is duplicating an existing folder and rename it.
    3. Update the data in 'comp_data.txt'.

    I have already tried first two steps, I cant understand the last step? By duplicating d-m-e folder, I created a new folder wherever the d-m-e exists in the component folder. I have also added that folder name in "supplier.txt" file. How to update the data in "comp_data.txt"??

    A recorded video for adding a supplier has been uploaded.

    The content of the new supplier will exactly the same to the copied one. We will have to update the component data file to fit your requirements. A description doc for the data file is available with the link below.
