Halftone Line

Anonymous
不适用

I have one line style I would like to be halftone.  I can do it by selecting each line and editing in override graphics in view by element.  I don't want to have to do that for each job. I'd like it set in my template.  this one line type needs to always be halftone.  

 

Any ideas?

 

Thank you!

I use that but when your printer setting color is set to black lines it doesn't help much.  

or do you print using color gray scale?

Consider creating a Selection Filter. You can then add the Selection Filter to multiple View Templates with this powerful Add-In. It is well worth the money for working on large complex projects. https://apps.autodesk.com/RVT/en/Detail/Index?id=6434143480366085343&ln=en&os=Win64 Hope this helps!

on your template go to manage/additional settings/line styles. Click on new tab and create a new line style assign the color you want and the line weight and you be done. This line will be available any time you need it.

Is there a reason this can't be changed in the view filter?

Any solve this? Overriding to halftone is not ideal.

Instead of trying to make a black line plot halftone I created a new "gray" line using the color I want the line to plot as.

I tried that but it still printed dark. I tried 252 gray and the other 152 or wahtever it is. The only way to get the "faded" look was to override as halftone.

I use pen 129 for gray and 192 for light gray. You may need to experiment to find the right shade.
