Creating a surface texture balloon

A Surface Texture balloon enables you to show texture on a surface using standard symbols, for example:

1. Click Annotation tab > Balloon panel > Symbol > Surface Texture. The balloon-specific Text toolbar is displayed.
2. If you want to place the symbol onto the surface, deselect the Pointer On/Off button on the Text toolbar.
3. If there is a pointer on the symbol, click the position on the surface where you want the pointer to touch.
4. Click the position where you want to lay the symbols of the surface texture. If there is no pointer, click two points on the surface; the symbol is drawn parallel to the line between the points.
5. When you have set the two positions, the Surface Texture dialog is displayed. Use it to enter the symbols and values of the surface texture.
