Graphic scale that automatically adjusts to the actual scale of a view

[HVAC-Novice]

I want to include a grahic scale on some views. There are some annotation families (like in this thread). But there one needs to manually set the scale and match to the scale of the view.  the problem with that is:

- I need to manually set it for each view

- If I change the view scale, i need to change it again.

- The above can be forgotten, and then the plans are erroneous when the scale shown is wrong. 

So I want a graphic scale that automatically scales with the scale. An initial idea would be to use a generic family since that would scale (annotation families don't seem to scale)

this would be placed on the view. another neat feature would be if there was a graphic scale that would be part of the viewport. But I'm even less sure how to do that. One idea would be to somehow use the "View Scale" parameter. 

I attached the family from the thread I linked above.

I'm not satisfied with our solution, but the way we do it inhouse it to make it a modelled element family with nested generic annotations.

The positive is that it works, you can put it off to the side of the view and as long as it falls within the Annotation Crop Region it's there and scales appropriate to paper and you can see it clearly.

The negative is that so can every person linking in your model....because it's a modelled element. Between categories and parameter filters it's easy enough to hide, but we are introducing extra work to others which doesn't sit well with me.
