Different Line Weight Scales on Same Layout

Hello - is it possible to have two different lineweight scales in two different details on the same layout? I know I can control Line Width scale globally in the print dialog, but I’d like to control it per detail.

The use case is if I have a 1/16" overall plan and I call out a 1/4" plan on the same layout, I want the lines to not register as thick on the 1/16" drawing.

Thank you!

Hi Joe,

You can create a new DisplayMode (copied Wireframe in this case) and put a scale on the curves.

When printing make sure that this option is checked.

Depending on the level of control you need, creating a linetype that either uses the document units or not might suffice (width affected by zoom level)

amazing @Japhy ! this is exactly what I needed - thank you
