  1. Click a symbol in the document.

  2. Use any element manipulation command like Move, Copy, or Scale to manipulate the symbol in the drawing.

  • You can edit a symbol by selecting the symbol and clicking Open on the shortcut menu.

  • You can manipulate only the symbol, not its individual elements. You can convert the symbol to individual elements on the drawing sheet by selecting the symbol and clicking Convert on the shortcut menu. You can also select multiple symbols and convert them simultaneously; however, if the select set contains anything other than a symbol, Convert is not available.

  • You can change the size of a symbol by selecting the symbol and then dragging one of the handles.

If you cannot scale the symbol with this procedure, select the symbol and click Properties on the shortcut menu. Then, on the Behavior tab of the Symbol Properties dialog box, clear Lock Scale.
