I am new to Altium. I am designing my first circuit using this software. I wish to place a number of male terminal pins on the board. I have not found a corresponding library part. Does anyone know how best to do this? I am sure it will be easy!
Look in the connectors library down towards the bottom, They call it a plug which is just a simple connector in the schematic sheet, For the the PCB look in the same same PCB library and the foor print is called PIN1.
You've made a good choice in chosing your software for this job.

sorry for asking here...
I have same problem as the thread maker...
so if I want to use 6-way terminal block, then i put 6 PLUG-components???
thanks...

No if you have the connector Libarary the look for 6way header, Then you will have to create your own footprint to suite that's the way I do it. The header spacing is 2.54mm and terminal blocks are 5mm spacing.
If you have not the libarary installed then you need to install it.
