Linetype/weight ?

Simple question regarding a drawing that I am being asked to work on.

Think its been converted from a pdf. The scale is fine but (dimensions aside) all the lines merge into one another and the symbols just become "blobs" when you zoom out.

Sure this is something very basic but can't get my head around it.

Check the lineweights in the properties & layer manager dialogues. Look at bringing them down to 0 or default.

OK.... taking the lineweight to zero has done the trick.... almost.. LOL

The lines are now fine but the symbols still have the same problem.

Are the symbols blocks... within the blocks the entities could still be retaining individual lineweights... a pain innit?

does that mean I've got to check/edit every block ?....

Uh huh... yep... PITA innit... you could do a search for a lisp file to do it across the board... someone here might have written one already... I've got one that strips the colours & layers (do a search on Nuke.lsp) but I've not modified it to do lineweights.

Oops... you can turn off lineweight display... LWDISPLAY ... off... turns off all lineweights (if that's what you want to do)... we don't use 'em here so I'd forgotten the command existed.
