- Select a bar scale tool on a tool palette.
A bar scale tool is located on the Annotation palette.
- Specify the insertion point of the bar scale.
- Specify the rotation of the bar scale.
Note: Bar scales that have been inserted with a bar scale tool can be modified in the drawing and saved back as a tool on a tool palette. By default, a bar scale tool created that way will have the same layer key, layer overrides, symbol, attribute text style, and attribute text angle as the original tool that was used to create the annotation symbol in the drawing. The symbol location will be the current drawing.
