Assigning Annotative Scales to Supported Entities
Use the AnnEntityScale command to add and remove annotation scales for specified annotative entities.
You can assign multiple scales to annotative entities. This is referred to as scale representations.
When you hover over an annotative entity, an icon displays near the pointer. The icon
indicates that the entity currently supports only one annotative scale; the icon
indicates that the entity currently supports two or more annotative scales.
You can also remove obsolete annotation scales.
