Lines thickness is not changing and halftone issues

[jamile.danielle95]

Hi guys!

1 - So I need to change the thickness of my wall's lines on the representation but it is not working. I tried to go in the manage part and change it but it is not showing any difference in my project. The wall lines still with .10 but I want them with .30. I changed the thickness, then clicked on object styles, changed the walls lines but they still the same in my project.

2- some of my objects still in halftone mode, even though I changed it. The only thing marked as halftone in my project is the floor, and still some objects didn't come back to normal. I don't know what else to do, it is a big project and it would take a long time to redo all the objects that aren't the way they're supposed to be.

Turn Thin Lines (TL) OFF. 

Turn off View Underlay and/or change Underlay Properties through Additional Settings on the Manage tab.

the tl thing worked (thank you!) but the halftone part didn't. They still like this. It's just the lines and regions that are like this.

Are those Floor Interior Edges? If so, they are controlled by a subcategory under Floors. 

Or are those coming from Surface Patterns?  You can turn off Surface Patterns by View through View Visibility and Graphics Overrides.

They are classified as surfaces. But even if they weren't, I unmarked the floor option in the visibility panel you said and these lines and regions still halftoned. The only thing that is officially hafltoned in this project is the floor.

I'm  not sure I understand. Did you resolve, or are you still seeing unwanted lines in the View?  

[jamile.danielle95]

Oh, sorry, let me try to explain. See these elements in red? They are halftoned, just like the floor, but I don't want them to be in halftone mode, I need them normal, as the sink right there. The thing is these are regions and lines, and this option in the visibility sheet is not marked to be halftone anymore, but they still like this. The only way it is working is when I copy and paste the same element in its place, but it is a big project and i don't know how to solve it in a faster way

Maybe you have overrides by Element or by Filter. Select one, right-click and select Override Graphics In View: By Element and then press on the "Reset" button. Any change?  If no, go to the Filter tab in View Visibility and Graphics Overrides. Do you have any Named Rule-Based Filters activated?

This list may help you now and in the future:
