The libraries and symbols within them are all listed in a tree-view, and by default those trees are collapsed. There is a little expander arrow to the left hand side of the library name which will show components.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for your help, it was the expander arrow thing. Being a noob (to Linux) I wasnt aware of that.
