Drawing module - Line thickness

Post by mickele »

I am using version 10990 available on git.
From Drawing module, when printing a view of an object, printed lines are too large. Changing parameter Line Width in the view gets no result.
Any idea about possible causes?

but as you say does not in

to test the above I just created a default Part Cube, switched to Draw WB, default A3 page default insert view.


Draw WB is intended to be replaced over time by TechDraw, which is in 0.17

I confirm I encountered the issue only in the recent version of freecad (0.17). Version 0.16 isn't affected.
I understand that in the future Drawing WB will be dismissed, however in this phase a working Drawing WB is helpful to work with old projects.
