Working scale:

Type a value for your new working scale; this can be for instance the scale on which you will print your maps later on.

Use XY-coordinates:

You can use XY-coordinates for the positions of your texts in the Annotation Text object when you are working on a map with a georeference corners, or a georeference tiepoints (conformal or affine transformation).

Use RowCols:

You should use RowCol-numbers for the positions of your texts in the Annotation Text object when you are working on a map with a georeference tiepoints (second order transformation or higher order transformation), a georeference 3D, a georeference direct linear, or a georeference orthophoto.

When changing the working scale, a message will follow asking you to update all font sizes as stored in the Annotation Text object (i.e. the table):
