Instrument Summary Box

[Carrie C.]

So back again, how can you change the size of the instrument summary box to a readable scale? Currently, it's as big as a thumbnail.

Two things affect the size of the summary.

Symbol Scale sets the scale of the symbols, as a ratio. The Summary scale can be independent of the layer scale. I actually usually place summaries on sheet layers.

The text is set via the Text menu with the summary selected. (Title and header text size will set via Object Info)

Note, the overall width of the summary will expand to accommodate these settings, but it will not shrink.

HTH,

From a different problem I had, someone suggested checking the size of my text through the menu bar, which resolved that text issue. I tried it on my Symbol Key since I was having the same problem as you, and found I can keep it on a separate layer, but at the same scale and get the text to any size I want.
