I have a few objects on a layer (Circles and Lines).
I am trying to make them "Thicker". I have tried adjusting the layers "Lineweight" as well as individually selecting them and adjusting the lineweight but neither is working for me.
I have tried and failed to set line weight of object after baseview command. Its very thick line and showing the 2d object views in very bolds lines when i am trying to take print it is horrible to see it.
I am using Autocad 2013 version
There must be a way to get the line weight to show in model space. It shows up as specified in print preview and printed, but not on the screen. Is there a setting for this?

I’m wondering if there is a way to add and delete lineweight from the lineweight list?

When I go to model space I am unable to adjust the view scale. Although I can get to the prompt for a new scale value, the program will not accept my changes. Is this locked somehow?
View 6 Replies View RelatedVirtually all of my PhotoShop work involves HDR and 32-bpc (32 bit color) images. CS3 was great at handling these files, and had no trouble running most effects and features in 32-bit.
Switching to CS4, I find that the program is unwilling to do most anything while in 32-bit color. I cannot convert layers to smart objects, cannot add adjustment layers, cannot place objects, cannot duplicate layers, cannot add layer masks. All those options are greyed out.
Just today I finally found a workaround for smart objects-- if I save the HDR image as a 32-bit PSD file, I can "open as smart object" to get the 32-bit smart layer. In CS3, all I had to do was right-click on "convert to smart object".
I've tried this in both x86 and x64 versions of the program, and through the top menus, keyboard shortcuts, context menus, everything, and cannot get CS4 to let me do what CS3 was all to happy to do. I reset my preferences,
I'd rather not go back to CS3, but at this point, CS4 is useless to me.

After the track is laid and the volume control is available, it has no effect on the music level in the laid track.
I don't know why Corel made this program without the ability to change the playback speed in project view. You can only change the speed on each clip. When you have 50 or more clips, this can take all day, when it could take a few seconds if you can do it in project mode.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI am trying to embolden lineweights to stand out on the drawing, without them getting in the way when viewing in the drawing. I have set the lineweight in the layer dialogue box to the max size (2.xx mm), checked the "plot lineweights" in the printer dialogue and switched between none and grayscale (this is so the assigned colors will fade out in the background). Nothing I have tried thus far has changed the print output on any of my printers (virtual PDF, HP2100, HP2600n, HP2840 they are all very old). I have read through the lweight command and help sections, but I don't need it assigning the lw just getting it to properly print.
One possible problem: is the line weight relative to scale or is it absolute? I am printing at 1/8" scale, and that can't change.
I already change the lineweight on the properties but nothing happens to the line. What's the matter?

I just want my lineweight settings always (for any drawing) to be as I set them!
I am currently converting my drawing to PDF. However, certain lines on the drawing are showing up bold and thick when converting. I understand that they are appearing and disappearing due to me turning on or off the hide/show lineweights feature. But I would like the lines to be default size. I don't need them thick.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am running two networked computers and a networked Designjet 510 plotter. One computer runs LT2013 and the other LT2014.
I am having an issue with the LT2013 machine in that it plots much darker than it should (uses a heavier lineweight). I have checked the plotter set up and plot style and both appear the same.
Im trying to print a logo for my detachment using Autocad to PDF but for one the line dont show up in the PDF file and second the original color of the drawing is faded. Black goes to a smoke grey color, lines dont show up, and the red is blurry. I need this to be fixed but I just dont have the skill to do it. And stupid autocad doesnt have a contact number for step by step instructions with an actual human! Im trying to use the logo for a T-shirt but it seems like I cannot for the life of me print a suitable digital image for it. I am using AutoCad ARCH 12...
View 4 Replies View RelatedUsing AutoCAD 2011 we always use 0.00 as our default line weight but the default will change to 0.010 with no real pattern. It can be any drawing at any time. We have reset this dozens of times without being able to stop it from reoccurring.
We are also not able to get line weight to display (yes we check the Lineweight Settings, Display lineweight box) again on random drawings at random times.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUsing acad2011, i have a flatshot image on a separate layer. The lineweight is set by layer, but when i change it in the layer properties manager nothing happens... There is no change to the blocks created by flatshot on the specific layer (other objects do change lineweight).
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I copy objects from a drawing to another drawing in .DWG, it appears that the lineweights becomes different between the two drawings.
For example, let's say there is a layer whose Lineweight is 0.3mm, Color is green and Linetype is continuous on the source drawing file. You notice the objects under that layer should be thicker. After copying to another drawing or destination drawing file, I noticed the layer got transferred across which is good and everything else associated with that layer. But then, I noticed on the other drawing, the objects on that layer are not as thick as that of the source drawing file. When i checked the layer on the layer properties manager, it shows the lineweight is 0.3mm. I wonder why the lineweight of the objects are different as if they are 0.00mm and what should I do to keep it consistent on the other drawing after the copy.
All my lines are the same lineweight when I plot, they do show differently on my computer screen, how can I fix this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedSomehow i can't draw lines with different lineweight. I can change the color and the linetype but the lineweight doesn't. In the properties toolbar over the workspace the last option (after lineweight) is not active and shows bycolor!I suppose that is the problem why i can't draw lines with different lineweight!

There doesnt seem to be a way to control the lineweight of text in a table. I have changed the color of the text and I have applied a lineweight to the table but the text is way too light. I spent a bunch of time putting info into tables and it looks like total crap and I cant seem to change it. What is up with this?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI realize I am probably using ACA against the way it is meant to be used, but is there a way to get back the linetype and lineweight menus that are on the classic view toolbars but not the ribbon? I just upgraded to 2012 and decided to bite the bullet and just use the ribbon, but it's really just not working out. Unfortunately I only have ACA yet am doing non-architecture work so really need to be able to modify lines without creating a different layer for each type.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an interrogation: If the lineweight in my .pc3 file is set to "Use object lineweight" & that color is assigned to a layer with the lineweight set to "Default" How is the lineweight determined when plotting (assuming no lineweight overide on any objects)?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow do I change the lineweight system variable
Pressing the command button puts <Lineweight > in the command line.
The last problem I had to search for was to change lineweights
br.LineWeight = 0.35
should be:
br.LineWeight = LineWeight.LineWeight035
With regard to line thickness, which takes precedence when plotting a drawing, the layer lineweight (in layer properties) or the line colour assignment (in plot styles)?
