No, that workaround isn't applicable. I'm not using pressure pipe and I'm displaying only the centerline of the pipe already.

I wanted to bump this post and add a screenshot. Pipe network line segments display lineweights correctly, curved sections do not. Any thoughts or ideas?

Staring at your screenshot...trying to tell what I'm meant to be looking at...can't figure it out.
Any chance you can turn off all the other layers?

here's a shot w/ labels. notice the difference in line weights. both pipes are the same style but the curved section wont properly display the line weight.

No real ideas.
Just wondering, what do you have the lineweight set to in the pipe style?
ByLayer, ByBlock, or something else?

Not that it's "amiss" per se. But if this is a glitch, I'm trying to think of a way around it.
Your centreline lineweight is set to 0.90mm in the style. Try setting it ByLayer, and put the layer to 0.90mm. Either that, or set it ByBlock. Then select all the pipes and set the lineweight in the properties box.
