Electrical symbol size
I'd like to know if it is possibel to change the size of electrical symbols. For example, when inserting a symbol for a light switch or ceiling light or convenience outlet, the size is ok at 1/4" = 1'-0" scale (maybe a little big, but ok). But to scale a drawing up to say 1/2" = 1'-0", to show greater detail in small rooms (like a bathroom), the same symbols are huge. Can the size be reduced? I have to believe there is a setting, like scale factor, somewhere that can be changed. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mark

I wouldn't do it .... the sizes should change to reflect the scale you are using. But, if you must, open the symbol and go to the sizing tab and change it to what you want and see if that gives you the results you want. But, what about when you go back to a different scale?

I can't do it
I'm not asking if I should do it, I'm asking if I can do it. If I find out I can, then I'll investigate if I should do it.
Think I'll start my weekend now.
Thanks for the feedback.
