kippax Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 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.

Hedgehog Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Check the lineweights in the properties & layer manager dialogues. Look at bringing them down to 0 or default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kippax Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Are the symbols blocks... within the blocks the entities could still be retaining individual lineweights... a pain innit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kippax Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 does that mean I've got to check/edit every block ?.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgehog Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 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.
