How to display op amp as 14-pin chip rather than 4 individual amp circuits?

As the title says; can I change the way Multisim displays an op amp from 4 individual amp circuits to 1 14-pin chip?
I'm just interested in placing the chip and building my components around it. 

thanks.

Hi there,

 

There are two ways to do this, one is to use the hierarachical block to represent these four Op amps, you can insert this block in another new blank sheet.

Click Place ==> Hierarchical block from file and then you can see the 14Pin clock on your sechamatic.

But I do not recommand this method, because for your future PCB design, this is gonna be hard to assign the footprint. If you are only interested in placing the chip and building the components around it, this can be a way.

 

Another method is to use the Componnet wizard under the Tools menu. You can sign a customized multi-sectional component with both model and footprint together. (Or just the footprint to see the layout) The following article might be helpful to design your own component.

Attached is the hierarachical block.

Hope this helps.:-)
