Using Notation Objects

The notation objects add information to a VectorWorks Architect or Landmark drawing with pre-formatted objects that maintain a constant size regardless of the drawing scale.

To insert a section-elevation marker, see Section Lines and Section-elevation Markers.

The North Arrow, Drawing Label, Reference Marker, Revision Marker, and Elevation Benchmark notation objects are inserted on the drawing in a similar manner.

To place a notation object:

1.	Ensure that the appropriate layer is active.

2.	Click the desired notation object from the Dims/Notes tool set.

3.	Click on the drawing at the desired location. Click to set the length and/or rotation of the object.

If this is the first time the object is inserted in this session, the Object Properties dialog box opens. These parameters apply to subsequent placements of the object and can be changed in the Object Info palette. Click OK.

4.	Click again to place the object on the drawing, using the default document attributes.
