Barscale programs: BARSCAL3 prompted BARSCALE command line -- better for AMLs -- RECOMMENDED BARSCAL3 Prompts the user for the units to be displayed (feet, meters, miles, km), and does a correct conversion from the mapunits setting in Arcplot, allowing the user to easily create a variety of scales. You are prompted for text to be displayed above and below the scale bar, and the current text font and size settings are used to create it in the proper location. Note that this works similarly to most other Arcplot commands that produce text, including those that create legends, etc.: set the text font, size, quality, etc., first then use the command. Another modification is that the position of the scale bar is centered on the point you specify -- previously you've specified the lower left corner. This allows you to more easily center a series of scale bars (miles & km for instance). BARSCALE A command-oriented version of BARSCAL3, thus better suited for use in AMLs. See HELP BARSCALE for more information. Let me know if there are any problems with using BARSCAL3. jerry
