#### Components

Right now we cannot move, delete, or edit directly the electronic components when we create electronic circuits. 

My suggestion is about adding a function when the user right clicks on the component it will display edit properties, move, delete, copy & paste feature.

#### Proposal

Add this function upon right clicking the component to easily edit the current properties of the component to the desired properties. Then the user will be able to move, delete, copy & paste the component without any hassle.

#### Mockups / Examples

Upon adding this suggestion the Maxwell circuit simulator will now look like this.

When the user wants to edit the properties of a component it will look like this below. The user will just click ok then apply the desired properties.

Then if the user wants to delete the component, he/she will just click on delete.

If the user wants to move the component, he/she will just click on move the component. Then move anywhere the user wants.

To copy & paste the user will just click on it. Or just press on the designated keyboard function at the right side.

#### Benefits

♦ The user edit the component’s properties directly to construct a circuit precisely to give the desired output

♦ Easy to copy & paste components to easily construct a circuit diagram

♦ Create a better and efficient electronic projects
