Model appearance - line width, point size
I know that I can select individual body and set (in appearances) it's display properties (specifically of interest to me is line width and point size),
but... can I set these properties globally for all the bodies in given design?

Maybe you need a special feature, go into Macros_recipes and Code_snippets, Topological_data_scripting.

Re: Model appearance - line width, point size
Sorry, that's for drafting, I am talking about model appearance on the screen.
Thank you, that works for new bodies, but...
Doesn't do anything for existing bodies
Hwoever, useful for future (and how daft of me - I was looking in Display, rather than in Part Design
)-

Select all the bodies and change the properties all in one go.

Re: Model appearance - line width, point size
Excellent
Thank you.
Not the most intuitive location (i.e. Draft workbench) for such a useful tool working with all workbenches.
I was wrong again
- still learning 
Biggest difficulty is remembering all these tricks
