    Default thick polyline

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    When I draw a polyline, it draws the line extremly thick, but if I draw a regular line it's the correct thickness. It does not matter what layer I am in. Any ideas?

    In a nutshell, I create 3D models from the client's CAD files or design sketches, which I then use to produce high quality rendered images. Click on the link in my signature to view my portfolio. I'm always looking for work, so let me know if you need any renders. :)

    It would be nice if you would share your solution with us.

    This is what I was going to suggest:
    You must have a width associated with your polyline. Initiate the PLINE command, click to place the first point and then type W and make sure your starting and ending widths are set to 0.

    Can also type PLINEWID and set to desired width for all
    future plines.
