Hi Maxim,
Thank you for replying earlier. ** NOTE ( I am sending this through this forum as it seems that the email replies do not go through?). Also, the screen shots are detached from the comments I am trying to make about the image.**
Here are the screenshots to try to illustrate what was happening, per your request:
(there are a few more to try to better illustrate what is going on)
1) Here is a SS from model space of the different layers and pen widths I am trying to use. Each line is drawn in the desired layer, with an associated color in model space, with the layer name written adjacent to it and the pen width that I hope to use with the layer as set in the ctb file that I created.
2) Here is a SS of the ctb file. As an example, you can see that I have selected a line width of 0.1500 mm to be assigned to Color 2 or Yellow.
3) You asked me to clarify why I could not draw in model space if the line widths were NOT set to default in model space. Here is an image of them in model space where the line itself was changed to a different thickness. The heavy lines sit over other lines and obstruct the drawing.
4) Below in the following two images, you can see what I meant by the pen width offerings vary between the adjustments one can make through the paper space view port settings, and the pen width offerings one can select in the ctb file.
The series in the Paper Space setting arrays as follows
( .002, .004, .005, .006, .007, .008, .010, .012, .014, .016, .020, .021, .024, .028 .031…) IN INCHES
The series in the ctb file choices array as follows:
( .05, .09, .100, .1300, .1500, .1800, .200) IN MM
HOW TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS? For drafting, I was accustomed to using a range of metric sizes from a double aught to a .2 mm for typical drafting of architectural things.
But despite the differences, I used to be able to get this to work in Autocad for YEARS and now I can not.
I have tried checking and un-checking the line weight icon in Paper space, per your suggestion.
I can not find any basic instruction that seems to apply online or in You Tube.
I am limited to 3 images so hard to explain it all...
I appreciate your help.
best,
Megan
