Viewport - Displayed line thickness

In model space all of my linetypes (for all me various details)look correct, however after creating multiple Viewports within a new layout, and scaling them appropriately the line thickness of each viewport look very thick. To the point where dimensions and notes are unreadable. But when I plot, everything is ok. It appears as though everything has been drawn with a very thick polyline. What causes this?

Thanks,
Mike

You can try to type 'lwdefault' in the command line put this value to 0 (zero). If i'm ok this will solve your problem.

This is the best solution, but also note that you will not see the thickness of your lines in modelspace either, it's a global on/off switch.

 

Also if you look at the row of icons at the bottom left of the Autocad Window The fourth from the right should be Show/Hide Lineweight. That is a toggle as well. If it's blue your lineweights will show, if it's grey they won't
