Hi all,

 I have manually changed lineweights in some of my views to make walls appear a bit thicker using the 'lw' shortcut).

I now need to make parts of this plan halftone, but when i do this the lines that i manually changed do not become halftone. Is there a way to reset the lineweights back the their original form?

Thanks

You can use the LineWork tool and choose the 'by category' setting to change a linework over-ride back to the original category display.

However if you wish to change all over-rides in a view back to by category this could be time consuming.  Since all over-rides are view specific, if you duplicate the view with detailing, you will get an exact copy but it will be void of any view specific over-rides.

When deciding graphic display choices in Revit in the future you should think about a pecking order of options.  I tend to think of them in this order.

1.  Object Styles

2. Category Over-ride

3. Filter

4. Object over-ride

5 Linework tool
