IIRC it just took schematic yaxis value to choose vertical order, and left or right of schematic midlplane to determine left or right. You could then instantiate the symbol just generated, then "dive into" edit it to change the order and grouping and box size if desired by GUI methods. For things with short names and few enough ports, it was useful. It's obviously best to specify busses and so use bus ports to keep things managably compact.
