HELP! How do I change Window Opening and Model-In Place Wall lineweights

[Anonymous]

Ok, so my firms having a problem trying to figure this out and it's not something that we want to just Override the graphics by view for. We are in Revit 2016 and we have made a panel system that attaches to our walls and we want to change the line weight of the edges of the panels. As you can see in the attached image the panels are a super thick line and have no depth to them and don't actually show how we want them to. This was a "wall" that was made from a Model In Place Component and given the wall category. Every single time we go in to that and edit that wall category, nothing changes and it stays a super thick line. How do you change those lines? I want them to be thin so you can tell the breaks being there. I also want to see the window cut opening line less thick. Can't seem to figure that out either and I have looked in Visibility Graphics and Object Styles. I am not sure where it could be.

Hi @Anonymous

I would be happy to look at this. Is it possible to attach a stripped down model that contains this component? I would like to see how it is built and how we might get the lines to appear correctly for yo.

I am not sure what it is, but something happened when I changed the view template from our Section Template to our Elevation template, it now works. I don't know what in the settings is fixing the problem, but I got it to work perfectly. I need to look into the template and see the differences

I am glad that it is working. And yes, a little digging into the templates should reveal the curious setting.
