Jonas,

You should only have to modify the Position property to move the scalar
bar. Position2 adjusts the size. If the scalar bar is horizontal, x2
controls the width. If the scalar bar is vertical, y2 controls the height.

Setting the position to [0.05, 0.5] moves the scalar bar to the top left
corner of the view for me.

HTH,
Cory
