Plot Object Lineweights - Default to OFF

Is there a variable that can control this option to be unchecked by default, or a LSP that can do that?

@jlaidle1 ,

I am assuming that you mean for this checkbox to default to unchecked..

...While I do not believe that there is any system variable for THIS particular setting.. The best and most efficient way that I can think of for this to default being UNCHECKED would be for you to create a PAGE SETUP with the box unchecked, then apply this page setup to your layouts.

 

To implement this default EVERY time on EVERY machine, you would need to create a template with this page setup by default, THEN in your Options > files > template settings you will need to add the template so that users moving forward will default to this option. Ultimately, it's all about your templates to implement this option moving forward..

 

Best,

~DD

I know that page setups can control that, but we would like to have that unchecked by default.

Set it that way in your template.

You may need to build this registry path long-hand as there is a space in the key's name
(setenv may not work).

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R20.1\ACAD-F001:409\Profiles\[xxxx]\Previous plot settings\Model
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Autodesk\AutoCAD\R20.1\ACAD-F001:409\Profiles\[xxxx]\Previous plot settings\Layout

and look for "Print lineweights"

???
