Setting Default Line Weight


Recommended Posts

Aloha,

I am trying to set a specific line weight for various tools. For an example 0.35 for Rectangle and Line but 0.13 for Dimensions etc.

I checked all the preferences but no luck. I did try to set line weight for Rectangle tool with no object selected to .035 but then my Dimension also carries the same line weight when I change to this tool. I want to have each tool to lock itself with its own attributes. There are many tools that keep their settings in the preferences but can this simple attribute stay as specified for each tool? Or this a wishful thinking on my part?

Thank you!

yes use classes.

then in your attributes palette keep them all by "class style"

then set your class definitions to "use at creation"

also you can have dimensions auto-classed, which is how

it is set-up by default to be assigned to the "dimension" class

even if it is not currently the active class.

i have seen on here that some people use scripts to set line weight and colors,

but that is not the standard practice.
