Topic: Plotting with object level lineweights and a CTB file

[alanjt]

First off, is it possible?
I want to follow my normal color printing scheme - based on our CTB files, but I want to be able to set the leader property in each MLeader style to have a thicker lineweight. In plot settings, I have plot with styles checked, which automatically checks plot with lineweights, but everything is always based on the pen table. Am I missing something. I can't believe I've been dealing with AutoCAD for 10+ years and this is the first time I'm having to deal with this.

just place those leaders on layers with the proper pen weights....

or change their color to be BY OBJECT *)ick!(*

OR

welcome to the world of STB and get some style!

As much as I *HATE* doing this, could you not just hard color the objects to a thicker pen weight?

override the color with 0,0,0 and apply a lineweight, that way it will print black, and have the lineweight you want.

Probably not the best way but command _mleaderstyle and change the color of the line to a color set at the wieght desired.

Oddly enough, for this one situation, I did just that. Thanks for the suggestions guys.
