Laurali Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I've printed out some elevation viewports and the line weight is way too light. If there is a class that controls those lines as there is for sections I can't find it. All I can think to do is trace over-but there's got o be a better way... Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted May 4, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted May 4, 2015 Select the Section Viewport, then in the Object Info Palette, click on Advanced Properties and you can adjust the line weight scaling under the Attributes tab. 1 Quote Link to comment

AlanW Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 @Le PhamNP, Also take note of the walls, the style and exactly how the style is built. Everything is by style and wall components. The wall New or Exist Class is the Container and the Components are the Classes within the Container Wall new or Existing. Note the classes and by component. Go through the wall style ans understand it. If you dont get it exactly the same it can be very frustrating. Use the Render style as I use. Everything is changed by class where possible.

Jonathan Pickup Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 It would be nice if the line weights on elevations could be automatic. In the old days (manual drawing) line weights were used to show the form and modeling of the building, but we used to do this manually. http://learn.archoncad.com/2016/05/27935/drawing-basics-line-weights-on-elevations/ 2 Quote Link to comment
