Line Weights

[Beth1285]

On a sheet, I just want to sketch a line, and have it be thick. It seems that the standard thickest line, isn't all that thick. Is there a way to assign how thick a line is? 

In the Manage tab, and Object Settings I can edit the line weights, and add various types, but I don't see those showing up as options, or actually changing those types. Am I missing something? 

I can add a screen capture of what I'm doing, if that would help you understand what I'm talking about.

Thanks.

when you draw a detail line you select a line style to use from the contextural tab.  There are a number of line styles in a default template with different lineweights.  If you need somethig thicker you can on the manage tab select additioanl settingsline styles and create a new one with a thicker line weight you can use.

Yes! Thank you! I was in additional settings - line weight.

Yes the lineweight table you are describing is for setting how thick each of the 15 line weights actually print in real life on paper. Given a specific scale.
