Scale line weights in viewport without changing viewport scale

[CMINNICK37F3QE]

The CTB I use is perfect for 1'4"=1'-0" floor plans. If I have to print at 1/8", the line work gets muddy. How can I control the line weight of a single viewport? In Vecrtorworks, for example, you select the viewport and tell it to print lines at 50% . . . while keeping the drawing scale in tact.

Hi @CMINNICK37F3QE ,

Do not use CTB to control lineweigts, instead use lineweight property for Layers in all viewports (1) and Override Layer Properties in that single Layout Viewport (2):

Hello @maxim_k  ,

I get that, but I was hoping there was a less fussy solution, like the Vectorworks one-button solution I refer to. If this is the easiest way, then I will use it. 

Thanks for your help.

Do you have this option on when printing? If yes, maybe try to untick it?

@moneumiko,

I click that off if I'm trying to manipulate the linework, but I hoped to not have to take that rout...

I always have that option off, and my drawings look correctly.
