LineWeight Scripting

[pmbrull]

Hello and thank you for your time.

First of all, just let me say that the product you made is amazing and has been really helpful in the project I am working on.

I am wrecking my head around scripting some processes. In one of those, I need to export from DXF to PDF by tunning some PaperSpace parameters on the fly, so I wrote my own script from scratch. Everything runs fast and smoothly, although when printing the resulting file, lines are way too thin. In order to fix that, I added the following chunk of code changing LineWeight for the only existing layer:

var op = new RModifyObjectsOperation();
var layer = document.queryLayer("0");
qDebug("LW", layer.getLineweight()) // -3
layer.setLineweight(211);
op.addObject(layer);
di.applyOperation(op);
qDebug("LW", layer.getLineweight()) // 211
// Make sure changes are made
var layer = document.queryLayer("0");
qDebug("LW changed", layer.getLineweight()) // 211

While the code gives no errors, the resulting pdf still shows thin lines when printed. I would really appreciate some guidance here

Thanks again,

Pere

Must have messed up somewhere, code works perfect now. However, please let me ask one last thing.

In the code above I am manually changing the LW for one specific layer. Is there a way to change the global default value of every layer without needing to iterate over all of them?

Thanks again,

Pere

No, there's no "global" line weight.
