How do I change the minimum line weight in a drawing file?

[cholmberg42KWJ]

Hello,

I need to set the line weight in my drawing to be smaller, but the weight is already at 0.001, and that seems to be the minimum weight. Is there any way I can increase the precision of this value?

Thanks!

Don't think you can set below 0.001"

Why do you need line smaller?  Which printer you use and could print line that thin?

1200dpi = 0.0008"

I posit that there is no good reason to need or display lines this thin (0.001). Please check that your display resolution is fine enough to display line weights this small, then check your overall line weights relative to each other, to verify that they are in fact in scalar relation to each other. I've experienced many cases, specifically with exported PDF files, where the line weight appears massively large, but that's a result of either display resolution or the PDF line weight substitution resolution, and not actual "print" resolution. Hope this is helpful.
