I was putting together some profile view styles the other day and I ran into a similar problem I’ve seen many times. The requirement was to display the horizontal and vertical scale in the profile view title. Easy enough right? Well when we build this into the style we run into an issue:

The title and scales end up being the same size and color. The requirement was to have the scale be half the size of the title and be yellow in color. After seeking out some help I was presented with the solution. The answer was to use the bottom axis title to display the scale. However, when you look at the properties available to the axis titles, the drawing scale and vertical scale are not present. As it turns out, these titles can recognize properties from the main title object even though it is not present in the properties drop-down. So in order to transfer the codes we go back into editing the profile view title contents:

We highlight the scale text and copy or cut it from the editor so that we are only left with the graph view name. We then head over to the axis title text section and paste the text and codes into the contents editor for the bottom axis title:

After playing around with the text size, color and location we end up with the scale displayed below the title at half the size and using the color yellow:

My inclination is that this ability is not limited to profile view styles. I can imagine it would work with section views and possibly any other style that employs multiple labels. There’s only one way to find out!
