Where is the default line width?

bt101
Hi

I want to find the default line width do I can change it for the whole drawing.

If I look at the attributes for one line, it says the line width is "By Layer".
If I then look at the attributes of the layer, it says the line width is "Default".
I've looked everywhere for this default line width but cannot find it.
Please let me know where it is located so I can change it.
Thanks.

Hi bt101:

there seems to be a CAD convention:

https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/blob/08615fb5af03f93bd68dee1e45e72a136c33191a/librecad/src/lib/engine/rs.h#L676

basically, the default is Width00 (means 1 pixel width), if you need real width, please set line width at the layer or entity level.

Ah thanks.

In other CAD programs, I've never really worried about line widths and printing works fine.  If I import drawings into librecad, the lines aren't visible when printed.  Should I be fussing with the line widths to make them visible?  If so, is there a standard I should use, or just pick any width that prints?
