Why does the arcObjects help have to be so cryptic? It seems to be written for people who already understand it fully. For example when I look up how to set the scalebar units, I would like it simply to say how you use it:
.
Units = ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.esriUnits.esriMeters;with a sample of:
IScaleBar scalebar = scalebarStyle.Item as IScaleBar;
scalebar.
Units = ESRI.ArcGIS.esriSystem.esriUnits.esriMeters;Instead we get something that even after successfully setting the units we have no idea how the help given relates to what you actually use in Visual studio. I am sure I am missing something but it really shouldn't be that hard.
