Column Line Weights when plotting

ddengHGF47 — Thu, 28 Apr 2022 00:27:36 GMT

I want to change all my column on the foundation plan to line weight 1.

After having changed projection/cut line weights for the columns in Object styles, they are still printing out very bold (like in line weight 5 or heavier). Am i missing something? Or is there an alternative method?

Nope, it is still the same after I overrode both the projection/cut line on VG.

the above should probably be structural columns, not columns. Make sure to check filters as well

The (structural) columns are still coming out heavy after changing the line weight in Object Style and VG. There are no filters apply in this project, should I be using one?

Have you checked your Visual Style for that view. It may be set to the wrong one.

Hi,

I figured it out. Under structural columns in object style, "stick symbols" was controlling the boldness of the plot.

Thank you so much for posting the solution. I was checking everywhere and nothing was working. This worked perfectly
