Defining the minima table settings

Before a minima table has been added to the map layout, the appearance of the table can be determined to ensure it meets a product specification or organizational standard. Several aspects of the table can be customized, which include all the cell symbols, the table size, and the fonts that create the table.

The properties are described as follows:

• Size Units—Properties related to the unit of measure for the table size
• Width Setting—Properties related to how the table width is sized
• Width—The defined width of the table (in units determined by the Size Units property)
• Cell Border Symbol—Properties related to the line symbols of the table.
• Cell Text Symbol—Properties related to the text within the table cells

When you modify the line symbol or a text element on the table, there is a separate dialog box that appears so you can customize the color, size, and other aspects of the symbol's style.
