[drawing/detailing] line width of spline delimiting local section

[drawing/detailing] line width of spline delimiting local section

[drawing/detailing] line width of spline delimiting local section

(OP)
Hi everyone!
My current issue with Creo/elements is the following: when I make a local section that is contoured by some edges and a spline, the spline shows with the same width as for geometry (0.5 mm).
This is logic, because it becomes an edge itself, but I'm working in ISO standard and it should be shown as a thin line (0.18 mm, 0.25 would be acceptable too).
There is no way to change that line width. I cannot edit it with line style, because cannot select it (either in sketch, annotate, etc.)
I had a look to drawing options and there is no item to change for it.
Hope I explained it clear, and s.b. helps.

RE: [drawing/detailing] line width of spline delimiting local section

I'm not using Creo.  In WF4 I get yellow spline edges in local or detail section views.  These plot with the thin pen.  In the drawing detail options there is an entry under Miscellaneous options that may be what you are looking for:

line_style_standard  std_iso

The Help for this program was created in Windows Help format, which depends on a feature that isn't included in this version of Windows.

T.H.A.N.X!
It did the trick. I regarded line weight and colour as indipendent features, linked just by defaults or custom settings

Anyway, if anyone from PTC is tuned, It's time to unrelate the "forced in blue" text color from the line_standard, isn't it? We users can switch when needed (as I will do from now on), but that blue text is so annoying!
