Hello guys!
I got a problem in my Layout, when I go there to see the drawing all the line are super "fat". I try to use the LTS command, but nothing changes. Why these is happening? Because in the "drawing" section everything is just ok.
Thanks to all!
Cheers!

LTS command is not for Lineweight type.

Try to change lineweight values in your drawing layers .

You can control the display of line width, wich is known like lineweight in AutoCAD, with LWDISPLAY.
LWDISPLAY=1 let you see line width as defined in Layer Manager status
LWDISPLAY=0 will show everything with the same width, no matter what the Layer Manager status is.
 
In your particular case, you say you only see lines "super fat" when you change to your layout tab. This can occur because of your layout settings. Use _PAGESETUP, then choose the selected layout and the button Modify. In the next window, check wether the box "Display plot styles" in the upper right corner is enabled or not. If so, then uncheck, Accept and exit _PAGESETUP.
This way your layout won't show "super fat" lines but you must know that when you print your job you will get these lines too width. I think you should check your .ctb or .stb files.
I'm sorry if any of the specifications I made is not entirely correct because of translation problems. I mean, e.g. you may get a message slightly different instead of "display plot styles" The idea is you can locate the box and uncheck it, no matter what the exact message is.
