SCALE 3.000 vs SCALE 3

How do I get WF3 to let me change the number of digits in the SCALE
text? I've tried right clicking/properties, but do not get the same
options as if it were a regular dimension.

Thanks,
Bruce

Do &SCALE[.1] to give you a single, rounded decimal place of data. Do &SCALE[.2] for 2 decimal places, etc.

You should be aware of the view_scale_format setting in your .dtl file.

Good point. I typically use ratio_colon as it's closer to a fractional scale.

.....<sarcasm> No no no... it's Wildfire that's more intuitive and
straightforward </sarcasm>

 

I must be getting old. 2 years of WF2 & I still reckon I'm 20% slower
than I was on 2001...

I like some of the tools, just not those they hired to design the
interface.
