Different display level for different scale

I have forgotten how to make my walls display with composit detail in enlarged plans but in outline only at 1/4"=1-0".

What is the best way to do that in version 10?

I remember now. Set Model view to Show Contours Only.

This almost works. In that Show Contours Only view I need the Contours for my walls to be .35mm

When I make a composite, I don't want the outside line of the skin to be that thick in when displayed at 1/4" scale.

Is that being to picky?

I want the walls to have a "scale sensitive" setting like the windows.

You can acheive that by assigning alternative pen sets to your drawings.
Thank you s2art,

I had not thought of that. I am sure that is the extras step I need.
