Making Your Plot Styles Visible

Making Your Plot Styles Visible
You won’t see any changes in your drawing yet. You need to make one more change to your
drawing options:
1.
Choose Format 
Lineweight to open the Lineweight Settings dialog box. The Lineweight
Settings dialog box lets you control the appearances of lineweights in the drawing. If lineweights
aren’t showing up, this is the place to look to make them viewable. You can find out
more about the Lineweight Settings dialog box in Chapter 16.


TIP
You can also click the User Preferences tab in the Options dialog box and then click the Lineweight
Settings button to open the Lineweight Settings dialog box.
2.
Click the Display Lineweight check box to turn on this option.
3.
Just below the Display Lineweight option, click the Default drop-down list, and select 0.09
mm. This makes any unassigned or default lineweight a very fine line.
4.
Click Apply & Close. The layout displays the drawing with the lineweight assignments you
set up earlier (see Figure 9.3).



WARNING
If your view doesn’t reflect the Plot Style settings, make sure you have the Display
Plot Styles option selected in the Plot Style Table (Pen Assignments) group of the Page
Setup dialog box.
