Example Comment
#(Scale) prints the scale as selected/entered on CadnaA’s main dialog with no decimals
#(Scale,1) prints the scale with one decimal (e.g. 1:500.0)
#(Scale,0,a) prints the scale of section „a“ with no decimals (e.g. 1:1000)
#(Scale,2,b) prints the scale of section „b“ with two decimals (e.g. 1:2000.00)

The keyword #(Scale) can be inserted directly into a text box in the graphical representation. This results in displaying and printing of the scale directly within the graphic. When the printing option is set to Adjust Scale, the printout will show the scale value as determined by the system.
