IEC generic switch

When I add a generic switch with n/c contact then add a 2nd n/c contact they are drawn with opposite actuation's. (1st up, 2nd down)

Can you give me the block names of these two symbols and the library you're
using (ex: IEC2, IEC4, GB2,...)?
thanks,
Nate.

I'm using iec4 library.
I don't know what the names of these symbols are or how to find out. (if you could tell me that would be nice)
But when trying to find out I tried installing a n/o version and got a error. "File not found: VSW11.dwg"

There are several ways to determine the block name of the symbol. Quick way
is to double click on the symbol and it should bring up the "Enhanced
Attribute Editor" dialog. The block name will be listed on the second line.
If this fails, then type DDATTE at the command line and pick on the symbol.
The block name should show up as the second line of the dialog. Worst case,
type LIST at the command line and then pick on the symbol. Look in your
command window for a bunch of stuff that displays. Scroll to the top to
where you can see an entry "BLOCK REFERENCE". Go down 3 lines and you should
see "Block Name:" with the info you're trying to find.

The generic switch is a HSW120 the 2nd contact is a HSW22.
And I'm using iec4 library.
