how I change the line thickness in the web version

Hello @isabellemouramonteiro 

Welcome to the Autodesk Web App Forum.

I would recommend the following steps for two different situations:

1. You only have the AutoCAD Web App
2. You also have AutoCAD Desktop available on the side

You only have the AutoCAD Web App

1. LWDISPLAY is not available in the Autodesk Web App. So you can not switch on/off the Lineweight. But the AutoCAD Web App shows the difference when your drawing has it already switched on.
2. Download the attached file Line_Width. I created it for you and the variable is already switched on.
3. You can upload it to your Web App File Manager and use it as a template. 
4. Select and Duplicate it if you need to.

You also have AutoCAD Desktop available on the side

1. Open AutoCAD Desktop

2. Switch LWDISPLAY on

3. Change the Lineweight of the lines in the properties palette (as shown in the screenshot below)

4. Save the file and upload it to the AutoCAD Web App File Manager

5. Open the file - the lineweight is shown. It also works for new lines you will create.

6. You can change the lineweight also in the properties palette.
