    Default -MAPINSERTPLE command for Dynamic Scale Bar

    Pardon my ignorance, could someone assist with what to do next after -MAPINSERTPLE has been entered? The command line is asking for a block name, what and where do I find this block?

    Default Re: -MAPINSERTPLE command for Dynamic Scale Bar

    The sample drawings in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk AutoCAD Civil 3D 2014\Sample\Symbols\; "Map - Scale Bars.dwg" and "Map - North Arrows.dwg" are apparently hardwired into the ribbon interface for that command. I simply copied and modified one of the existing dynamic blocks in there to look like my company standard north arrow, and it works.

    I haven't bothered playing with bar scales -- the corporate standard is a dynamic block already, and I don't see a need to tweark it.
