In this video, I walk through the what are line weights in CAD drawings, what's the difference between a drawing using line weight well vs one that isn't, and how you can control and setup line weights in your own .dwg files via your layers.

Audrey you have a great passion for your work! I agree that colors and line weights make a difference when designing in cad, and it seems that it is lost when you're in a corporate environment and have to comply with standards.. I once changed our firms colors to help a key employee because he was partially colorblind and could discern colors by intensity (then I had to change them back when he left). Thanks for your posts! subscribed.

I loved your video. Can you make one about scaling lineweights across different drawing scales? I'm trying to create a standard layer list that will display the thickness hierarchy correctly and clearly across many different drawing scales, i.e 1:250 to 1:3,000.

One thing I’ve learned for line weights is to draw everything using poly lines instead of lines.

Thanks this was good! Please bear in mind, the cut line ( plan view ) is typically at 48".

Yep, lineweights do play a big role for the clarity of the drawings.

@ZephyrDTV 5 месяцев назад

I prefer the color plotstyle coz you can export that plotstyle anywhere in your drawing,, and I always find drawings with colors based on their character or place in the drawing...

@807002044 Год назад

Thank you Audrey! Great tutorial again. Is it common practice for a lineweight setup to have different combinations of weights for various scale drawings? And what scale are the line weights you suggested, best used for? Thanks so much!

@robertiravonga559 Год назад

Thank you, AN. Do you have a video on creating views and sections?

@dnkarch День назад

Hi, how do you enable plotting of different scaled views of the same objects? I mean how do you get the bigger scale to print the walls thicker for example. Thanks.

Why don't you use the plot style table editor for the line weight setting?

@kevinrush4411 7 месяцев назад

Why don't you use the CSI-UDS Uniform Drawing System for using Lineweights and standard AIA Layers?

@sierramarie9474 Год назад

It seems like using the color plot style makes a lot more sense.. instead of making things more complicated and going into each individual layer and editing the lineweight

@audreynoakes Год назад

I definitely think color based plot styles can be helpful - particularly with large teams working in AutoCAD! But they are a bit more complex to set up for a designer working on their own. And the teacher in me also thinks controlling the line weight directly (instead of thinking in color) means the principles of line weights are better understood and applied. (That said, I've never been able to un-learn the colors of one of my first jobs, e.g. all cabinets should be drawn in 21.)

@sierramarie9474 Год назад

@@audreynoakes I just started working for a very new firm and I'm trying to make my own cad base file. I downloaded an old CTB file to use and noticed it is primarily a color based plot style. Now that i'm working in a smaller firm I'm trying to figure out how to unlearn this... and create my own. I understand it may be a bit more complex. I wish it was easier to figure out. You know what I don't understand is that I did actually just start with a normal base file, created layers and adjusted their lineweight. but they still all printed in the same lineweight. So i actually just imported my 'old faithful' layers and am using my xerox CTB to plot them in their correct (to what i'm used to) lineweight.

Hi, can you tell me the exact lineweights for each and every things, to look more proportionate,

tip: never try Dimensioning with Lineweights Shown-activated. Makes the Cursor "fumble" for accuracy, and precise-positioning.

esus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. 4 I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work which You have given Me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was. John 17:1-5
