| 5. | Define a height for the area. You cannot set X and Y dimensions using this option. | |
| 6. | Select other options, as needed, displayed in the Area Creation dialog box. These are explained in Create Area by Size and Location. | |

Sometimes the area will not display correctly inside the boundary - it may overlap a part of the boundary or not align with a portion correctly. In such cases delete the area and click again at a location that is different from the last location you clicked at. It may take two or three tries before you get the correct display. | |
