Plants lose line weight when massed

[Jessica]

Hey,

I have a planting plan with large groups of plants that are massed. Problem is they do not show any line weight. When I untick mass plants they have different line weights but this creates a mess of circles and makes the plan hard to read.

Any ideas on how to retain line weight while still having massed plants?

Thanks in advance

Thank you that helped!

I had hoped there was a way to still edit the line weight through >edit plant - 2D graphics so it would automatically apply to all plants. Instead I created a custom selection of each type of plant and changed line weight through the attributes palette.

This definitely helped me.  I assumed that it was the "Outline" that was being used for the massed plant ... I didn't realize that it was the "background."  Thanks!
