Scalebars
- Scalebars act like rulers. Their job is to help people measure distance on the map.
- Scale bars should not attract attention
- a skeletal style incorporating a very thin line (0.25 point) is usually better than the attention grabbing checkerboard styles.
- Avoid labeling all the divisions on the scalebar.
- Numbers placed on scalebars should be round and easy to work wtih. Avoid using decimal values.
