MaryB,
Thanks for that insight. But I do not think it addresses my question. I find confusion with Geopa/Microstation treatment of scales, this one in relation to profiles, is no exception. My profile cell reads a different scale than what the labeled grid reads and it is not by a proportional factor as you are indicating but by a factor of 2.5. That is what I am trying to understand, how the profile cell that I have appears to read two different vertical scale factors, one at 1=2v (profile cell) and one that reads 1=5 v (profile label of profile cell grid), per the screen shot that I have attached.
