LWeight Followup Question..

This is a followup to this thread..

Is there a SETVAR for the Toggle to Display Lineweight?

 

I have something that toggles it ON from time to time and

would like to just set it to be OFF when Autocad starts.

In my startup preferrably.

 

TIA!!

Perhaps this?

 

"The default value is set by the LWDEFAULT system variable, which has an initial value of 0.01 inches or 0.25 mm. All new layers use the default setting. The lineweight value of 0 plots at the thinnest lineweight available on the specified plotting device and is displayed at one pixel wide in model space."

lwdisplay i think.

On a side note how would I write a routine to go through all layers in a drawing

and set the lineweight to Default for each layer?

Drawings imported from Solidworks sometimes set a lineweight for different layers...

Try this:

 

(defun c:lwd nil
 (vl-load-com)

 (vlax-for lay (vla-get-Layers
                 (vla-get-ActiveDocument
                   (vlax-get-acad-object)))
   
   (vla-put-lineweight lay acLnWtByLwDefault))

 (princ))

 

Or

 

(defun c:lwd (/ tdef)

 (while (setq tdef (tblnext "LAYER" (not tdef)))
   (entmod (subst (cons 370 -3) (assoc 370 tdef) tdef)))

 (princ))
