Double pole double throw center off?

Hi,

I can't seem to find a DPDT center off switch in the program but surely I have overlooked this somewhere? Can someone tell me where to look or if I have manually create one.

Thanks

Do you just want to draw it in a schematic or do you want to use it in a simulation?

These might help explain a bit more about switches in CL:
