WHEN ZOOMING IN/OUT LINEWEIGHT IS NOT VISIBLE ALL LINES ARE THE SAME

nikosnikolopoulos.arch — Sat, 05 Feb 2022 12:37:10 GMT

Hallo,

I work with visible Lineweight .When I zoom in/out all the lines become thin and when I leave the zoom command the lines appear with their Lineweight , wich is very annoying and I can't work, is there any possible solution ,,,,?

I am on macOS Monterey 12.0.1

3,1 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5

8 GB 2667 MHz DDR4

AMD Radeon Pro 5300 4 GB

running Autocad 2019

Welcome to Autodesk Forums!

Hi @nikosnikolopoulos.arch ,

This is standard behaviour in AutoCAD for Mac.

There is no workaround other than turning off lineweight visibility.

Ups....! that's a small disaster... In case I make partition with windows in my Mac and I run Autocad from windows ,would I have the same problem...?

Thanks!

I suspect this from HELP may explain your issue better if you make the switch to Windows AutoCAD, see #2 vs #3:

Display Lineweights
1) Lineweights can be turned on and off in a drawing, and are displayed differently in model space than in a paper space layout.
2) In model space, a lineweight of 0 is displayed as one pixel wide, and other lineweights use a proportional pixel width. Lineweight display in model space does not change with the zoom factor. For example, a lineweight value that is represented by a width of four pixels is always displayed using four pixels regardless of how far you zoom in.
3) In a paper space layout, lineweights are displayed using real-world units, and lineweight display changes with the zoom factor.
4) By default, lineweights are plotted with the exact width of the assigned lineweight value.

Hi @nikosnikolopoulos.arch ,

No, you wouldn't have this problem.

In AutoCAD for Windows in Model, you will not see switching of lineweight visibility during zooming with mouse wheel.
