Forum: GNU Radio how to access hierarchical blocks saved in .grc_gnuradio

I made a hierarchical block with gnuradio-companion and it saved it
into .grc_gnuradio

Next time I open gnuradio-companion, will I have this available as a
gnuradio block?
and if yes, where is it, ie, under what section in the right menu?

thanks

Achilleas,

Yes, you should be able to access your hier_blocks using the [Custom] 
menu
on the right menu.

Also, if you are using GNU Radio from master, next, or 3.6.3, there is 
also
a new button on the toolbar that's a blue arrow in a near circle. The 
popup
text reads 'Reload Blocks'. If you push this, your [Custom] menu will be
repopulated with any new blocks you've created so you no longer have to
shut down and relaunch GRC.
