Hi

I am trying to change the lineweights to all be the same in the page setup manager.  when i open the lineweight dialog box, this is what i see:

I cannot get the default lineweight to change to mm.  is there another place this is to be done?  I would like the settings here to match thhe settings in the plot style editor:

Do you have this problem in only one drawing? Or in all drawings, even just created from the default template?

Looks like it is a bug in AC for Mac.
But in my case if I change LWUNITS to 1 and then restart AutoCAD (using QUIT command and then launching AutoCAD again) units in Lineweight list and in default line weight drop down as well as in lineveight list in Properties palette become identical - mm.
