ILoveMadoka Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I have a bunch of drawings some have display lineweight on and others are off. I know to get the display turned off, just type LWEIGHT and uncheck the Display Lineweight check box in the dialog. My question is this... Is this a SETVAR or something I can put in my startup to be off by default? I'd love to have a little lisp routine to turn it on or off depend upon my current need... I can write it if I knew what to change.. Is there such a setting? Where? Help please!! TIA! Thanks!! Quote

feargt Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 second thoughts....the lwdisplay variable is drawing specific so actually it is irrelevant what setting you have when u start autocad. it will automatically be turned on or off depending how it was saved in a particular drawing Quote
ILoveMadoka Posted October 3, 2008 Author Posted October 3, 2008 Thanks everyone... Stupid me thought "why don't you just Google this?" (after I'd posted already...) I'd found the answer about the same time as the first reply showed up... I guess it's true that the internet isn't just for porn anymore... Thanks again! Quote
rustysilo Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 I had this problem in 2006. This was a fix: add the line (setvar "lwdisplay" 0) to the acad2006doc.lsp file (at the end) If using '09 I suppose it would be acad2009doc.lsp Quote
