Trouble with elev view line weights

rgarand — Tue, 18 Nov 2003 22:07:50 GMT

Hello all,

I am having trouble with lineweights in the elevation view. I checked and recheck my lineweight setting within the wall settings/wall composite/material/model pen etc. I still get a heavy line for my siding fill on my elev.

Any thoughts on how to get this to a thin lineweight?

TIA

Had this problem, too. Was fixed by going to Options>Materials>3D Hatching and changing the Element Pen for the Siding material. HTH

Yes, this is the right answer; by default, all the 3D hatching pens are 1 (?!?!?) - and you should go material by material and change it to the pen of your choice, OR the object pen.

This list is a must for the beginner... IMHO
