There is a (sort of) way of doing this: View your map in a Layout window.
Set the Layout frame holding your map to display a particular scale, and do all your panning and zooming on the layout. You can create a custom page size if the area to view is very large. Don't pan or zoom the underlying Map window, but if you need to edit data or annotation, clone that window and set the clone to show a "reference scale". Pan around the clone (don't zoom in or out) and edit objects in that window. Hope this helps Spencer ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lee Morris Sent: Friday, June 09, 2006 9:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MI-L] Symbol Sizes I need help.
