Calligraph y Revcloud thickness

I can't find a setting that controls the "start" & "end" thicknesses of a Revcloud.
I notice that if I take a calligraphy style revcloud and go to Properties, I can change it to a constant thickness.
But if I change the "Start" & "end" thicknesses, it applies only to the 1st segement.
What I need is to be able to edit the "start" & "end" widths.
Right now it is way to big to use for small revclouds.
What am I missing?

Now, just so you'll know I'm inventive when required, I made a polyline where I want the revcloud.
I scaled to twice the size. I revclouded it and reduced it to half the size. Worked just fine.
BUT, I should still be able to adjust the default settings.

Start and end thicknesses are not directly controllable by the user, but _are_ affected by the arc length you are using. to get thinner widths on the calligraphy style, change the minimum and maximum ARC lengths to a shorter value. Since you scaled up and down by a factor of two, typing A after you enter the revcloud command, and halving the arc length defaults should get you similar results., Note that MAX cannot be greater that 3X MIN.

Thanks for the explanation.
It cleared things up.
It sure makes a difference.
And it sure makes a difference whether one puts the cloud in Model vs Paper space.
Again, thanks -KLYPH
