 Topic: Linetype IssuesPosted: 15.Mar.2017 at 17:06 |

Hello.
I am working in C3D 2016. I noticed my linetypes were not correct. Our State DOT has standards for linetypes. After I did imported the standards and open the drawing I had some strange lines. I have my LTSCALE =1. MSLTSCALE=1, VSLTSCALE=1 and it has not changed. The biggest problem that only my computer have this issue. I attached pictures of what they look on my computer and on others. Thank you

Hi,
Is it a line or polyline? Check the thickness of the layer as well. Sometimes the same layers have different standard settings. I know - sound obvious but I catch myself many times on that ;) Kamil www.CADMasters.guru |

aa: Please explain something to me. If I give you a drawing where I have set the lineWEIGHT by layer and you open that drawing on your computer why/how would it appear differently unless you changed it or you had lineweight display enabled/disabled? Additionally, if it is a pline the system variable PLINEWID is saved with the drawing and not in the Windows Registry. How then does it automagically change when opened by another cad tech on a different computer?

mik29: What is VSLTSCALE? When I type that in at the command line I get this:
Command: VSLTSCALE Unknown command "VSLTSCALE". Press F1 for help. Could you have been referring to PSLTSCALE? BTW...is Lineweight Display enabled? Edited by John Connor - 05.Apr.2017 at 12:51 |

So what happens if you toggle Lineweight off?

Do you utilize custom lisp routines that automatically load?
