Set up scales

Use the scale graphic object to show the possible range of values for a bar graph.

To place value labels on the scale (to create a legend), use text objects. Create the text
objects and then position them next to the tick marks on the scale. Group all the objects
with the bar graph.

To set up a scale

1. Double-click the scale.

2. In the object’s Properties dialog box, fill in the options on each tab:

In the General tab, specify what the scale looks like at run time.

In the Common tab, specify the scale’s spacial properties, name, and visibility.

For details about the options in the tabs, see Help.

3. When you are finished, click OK.
