Lineweights!!!!!

Anonymous
Not applicable

I'm using my own plot style and everything seems to look okay except for my furniture layer which I set to red (color 1) at a lineweight of 0.0900mm. I noticed that the furniture with straight lines is a different line weight then the furniture with curves. I checked and made sure all the furniture is on the same layer with the same lineweight. I also edited all blocks to make sure the lineweights were the same. Does curved lines plot differently then straight lines even though they are on the same layer with the same lineweight?

Update!

 

I just looked at the PDF I uploaded and it looks fine.... Is this an issue with Adobe Acrobat? When I view the drawing in Adobe Acrobat the curved lines look much lighter.

This is how the drawing looks when opened in Adobe Acrobat.

Hello,

 

Have You tried printing the drawing and making real-life visual inspection?

 

When You zoom in, You'll see that lines have equal thickness, and it just might be visual difference in how PDF Reader displays straight vs curved elements on screen when it's zoomed-out.

 

 

Kind Regards,
Pawel

Your PDF looks fine here, you probably need to change your PDF VIEWER display settings to match mine instead of the defaults

The previous answers are correct, and the display might round lineweight display up or down, which is why printing it out was suggested. Also, did you double check to see whether any of these lines are actually wide polylines? Probably not, but stranger things have happened . . .

It's an update and maya should run flawlessly no longer bifrost best. I suppose if you make and replace for That part of the software in order that component runs clean simply make that update for that componentsite. But in case you going to update the hollow software program absolutely.

Replying to the wrong thread?

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

yesh is off topic and referring to the wrong program. You can agree if you like but he isn't correct.
