In page 8 inte e Circuitikz manual the settings to get European style components e.g resistors like rectangular boxes instead of default looking.

It says this

\usemodule[circuitikz][american]

When I do this

\usemodule[circuitikz][european]

It gives an error.

! Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/short' and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it.

So it must be some other way to set this, how do I make it possible?

Thanks in advance
