Issue with rectangle width

[Kany777]

Hello,

Whenever I try to draw a rectangle, it forms a width of certain thickness. See attached drawing. This is in comparison with a line drawn which is of zero width.

Could you please help me with this issue?

Thanks

Lightweight polylines, which rectangles are instances of, have a global width property.  You may set that to 0. Select the rectangle and in the properties palette find that property and set it to 0.  If you want the rectangle command not to draw wide rectangles, then use the width option to set the global width to 0.

Another [perhaps less likely] possibility is that it has a lineweight  assigned [not to be confused with Width as @dbroad described].  Select it with no command active, and look at its Properties:

If it has a non-zero lineweight  [or if that says ByLayer and the Layer  it's on has a non-zero lineweight], and there's some reason to want to keep it that way, such as for eventual printing purposes, you can still have it display  without it.  In the OPTIONS dialog box, User Preferences tab, you can turn off displaying lineweights:
