To create the new element, click Create. A new sheet is then created and opened and the Symbol Template window displays.

Click Cancel to discard any changes and close the Create ISO Symbol Template window.

Spindle	If a Spindle SKEY is given, the Symbol includes a spindle symbol.
Scale	Changes the size of the symbol without re-defining the coordinates of the plotted shape.
Orientation
