The basic form of a hint sign is a square border.
The square border is the basic shape of the cue sign, whose parameter is the side length a, which usually takes the value of 0.025 times of the observation distance L. Observation distance L is the distance people are from the signage, which can be determined according to the actual situation. The role of the square border is to provide a uniform, standardized carrier for people to quickly identify and understand the meaning of the sign.
Cue signs may also include directional aids to more accurately indicate the location and direction of the target. Direction auxiliary sign is usually a small arrow, according to the actual need to indicate the direction of the left, right or up and so on. For example, if it is necessary to indicate that the target is located on the left side of the signage, then the auxiliary sign should be placed on the left side of the square border.
The color and text of the cue sign also have certain regulations. The text of the cue sign is white and the background color is the color of the sign provided. For example, if it is a fire equipment tip sign, then the background color should be red. This will increase the eye-catching nature of the sign and help people to recognize and understand the meaning of the sign faster.
