Drawing line thickness does not persist to print

In drawings, when I change the Line Width Group and set it to Medium or Thick and tick the Display Line Widths box the difference in line quality shows up on the display but not in printouts.

All the lines in any printout of a drawing always seem to be at the Very Thin level regardless of any changes made in the dialog above.

 

Is this a bug, expected behavior or am I missing something?

 

Thanks.

I think you are missing this check box in the Print dialog box.

Thank you so much John!

 

I completely overlooked that checkbox in the print dialog. My bad.

I have the same problem, however, my Print dialog box does not have a checkbox next to "Print Line Widths", seriously not making this up.

Hi,

I suspect it is a display problem where the checkbox is missing.
Restart Fusion and the system and see if the error disappears.

Thank you for the quick reply. Yes, you are correct it was a display problem. I work with Fusion on a extended screen. It is a large display that is connected to my laptop. I dragged the Fusion window from the large display to my laptop screen and then re-opened the print settings dialog and the checkbox appeared! Go figure...

Thanks for your help,

Tom
