I'm just teaching myself about component creation and I've sucessfully taken a chunk of circuitry and turned it into a component in its own little library project and now I can't do anything with it.

   

I want to import it into an existing project to replace parts of it but I can't find any way of calling up the catalogue tab that it comes under. Can I add it to the 'Cypress' catalogue?

You need to add the Library as a dependency of the project. 

   

 

   

Go to Project > Dependencies. 

   

 

   

Next to "User Dependenices," click the New Entry button.

   

 

   

Navigate to where the library cyprrj file is and select it.

   

 

   

Click OK and close the dialog. There should be a new tab in the Component Catalog.

You can also add your library as a default dependency for all new projects.  That is located under Tools > Options > Project Management > Default Dependencies.
