I copied the code from v2.4's main.js:<br>
<br>
<tt> if(CONFIGURATION.scale_line.enabled) {</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> Map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.ScaleLine({</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> bottomOutUnits:
CONFIGURATION.scale_line.bottom_units,</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> topOutUnits:
CONFIGURATION.scale_line.top_units,</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> maxWidth: CONFIGURATION.scale_line.width</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> }));</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> }</tt><br>
<br>
and pasted it into v2.6.1's build\dojo\dojo.js (yes, I know that is
not the right way) just before "this.configureMapTools();":<br>
<br>
<br>
<tt> if(CONFIGURATION.scale_line.enabled) {</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> Map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.ScaleLine({</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> bottomOutUnits:
CONFIGURATION.scale_line.bottom_units,</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> topOutUnits:
CONFIGURATION.scale_line.top_units,</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> maxWidth: CONFIGURATION.scale_line.width</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> }));</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> };</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt>this.configureMapTools();</tt><br>
<br>
(You should really put this in Application.js and do a dojo
compile.)<br>
<br>
But it did show the OpenLayers scale bar in v2.6.1:<br>

As Jim points out, one approach is to use a mapserver layer
to create an empty map with just a scale bar. Another
approach is to look at GeoMoose v2.4 and see where the
scale_line object is used in the JavaScript. It basically
just configures the OpenLayers scalebar. The advantage of
this approach is that it can support the ground distance
instead of just the map distance by including
<br>
<br>
<tt><span style="font-size:10.0pt">
if(CONFIGURATION.scale_line.enabled) { </span>
</tt><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier
New""><br>
<tt> : geodesic: true, </tt></span><br>
<br>
This difference can be significant depending on your map
projection and where your are mapping.<br>
<br>

Looks like the ScaleLine object was deprecated in v2.6 (<a

href="http://www.geomoose.org/releases/2.6.html"><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.geomoose.org/releases/2.6.html">http://www.geomoose.org/releases/2.6.html</a></a>),
and it was suggested to use the ScaleLine.js extension,
which I never found (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
