- In the graphics window, right-click one or more symbols of the same type, and then select the appropriate edit option:
- Edit Definition to modify the original symbol sketch. All instances of the symbol update with the changes.
- Edit Symbol to change the selected symbol settings in the Symbols dialog box.
- Properties to modify symbol properties. Change Line Type, Line Weight, Color, and Scale.

- Drag the green point to move the symbol to the appropriate location.
If the symbol contains
connection points
, use the connection points to snap to other geometry in the drawing sheet.
- Drag the blue point to rotate the symbol.
- Drag a yellow point to set size for the symbol.
Note: If an insert or connection point is coincident with a resize grip, the insert/connection point takes precedence. You must resize using an alternate grip or change the scale in the Symbols dialog box.
