True Line Weights?

Anonymous

Hi all,

I have 2 different lines with different line weights, I also have "true line weights" turned on and they still look hairline thin. Funny thing is, the line weights only show when I go to plot it. Any ideas?

Cheers,

Matts

If you are using a different pen set for display than for printing (which you generally should), then just beef up the pen weights in your on-screen pen set as required for your visual satisfaction.

This would serve to a point, but what I think he is looking for is a function that would exaggerate the lineweights in inverse proportion to the zoom. Personally I prefer to just zoom in to check here and there and trust the standards to produce the desired output.
