How to make components look as whole instead of consisting of multiple elements?

Question

Here is what I mean. For example I select CMOS 4011 and I am offered to place 4 seperate nand elements. Is there a way to show the whole "body"?

Only if you draw a new symbol. The 4011 is defined as a device containing

two hidden power pins and four gates which each use the same symbol. You

want a new symbol showing all pins and the gates inside, I presume, a

bit like the footprint. The new symbol needs a new device, which will

have the same package(s), so you'll need to learn to create devices and

symbols, and connect the pins on existing footprints. In short, you must

know almost everything about how to create library parts. There are good

tutorials in various places, luckily.
