Entering a Scalar Value Values that represent scalars, such as scaling factors, bulges, and so on, are numbers entered with no units. AutoSketch displays scalar values on the edit bar and in dialog boxes. When entering a scalar value, in addition to entering a value or expression, you can enter a scalar as a ratio of two lengths (the second length over the first). You can change a scalar value on the edit bar using either the keyboard or the mouse. To enter a scalar value on the edit bar using the mouse 1 Select an entity, such as a symbol, in the drawing. 2 Place the insertion point in the Scalar text box and press CTRL+ENTER. 3 Enter two lengths using any method of entering lengths previously discussed. To enter a scalar value using the keyboard s Select the existing value from the edit bar, enter the new one, and press ENTER. Entering a Percentage Value There are some instances where AutoSketch requires you to enter a percentage value instead of a length or angle. The Jump Settings dialog box, for instance, allows you to enter a distance as a percentage of an entity's length. You can enter percentage values in any of several ways: Notation for percentage values Notation Result # #% #% #% #.# (#.# x 100)% Entering a Scalar Value | 125
