Line Weights of Wall Cut and Projected Hatches

[Darin_HDR]

Working in Revit 2020.2.

Here is my dilemma, I am working in a demolition plan with a demolition phase override. I want my projected walls to be a line weight of 2 and my cut walls to be a line weight of 5. I don’t really care what the hatch line weight is as long as it is the same or greater for the cut wall.  The projecting hatch is grabbing the line weight from the object style of the wall’s projection line, line weight (which I believe is the intended function). However, the cut hatch line weight is defaulting to line weight 1.  How do I adjust the line weight of the hatch of the cut wall? I would like to be able to either control it (to bump it up to line weight 3) or make it at least not thinner than my projected wall hatch’s line weight. I have included a screen cast of this.

Another weird occurrence is that you will notice as I zoom into the cut wall, you can see the thicker line of the surface hatch behind the cut wall hatch, even though there is only one wall here. Why is the wall giving me both a cut and projection hatch (even though the projection hatch is masked)?

Have you checked the Phase Graphic Overrides? Please do so.

Cut patterns always use lineweight 1.  The only way to change them is changing the lineweight 1 to a different weight.

Because demolished elements are using the semi transparent Demolish material (under Phasing graphic overrides).  Change the material override it to By category will fix it.

@Sahay_R, I appreciate your response but either you didn't understand my question or didn't verify that your suggestion even worked. Additionally it is pretty clear you didn't watch my screencast where I showed your suggestion didn't work. Again, I appreciate the effort but posting suggestions without investing the time to understand the problem or explore the solution is a waste of your time and everyone else's. 

@ToanDN This was the answer I was looking for. It is unfortunate that Autodesk has given us the ability to control only half of the graphics associated with wall hatches. Seems like it should all be locked down to line weight 1 or designed to give us better control. Frustrating.
