HiStructure 4I've drawn a Universal Steel Beam (UK) in plan & set the details level to coarse so it appears as a stick. I wanted to increase the line thickness.After much searching I found that it was on the 'Other' sub-category under Structural Framing. Not exactly a very clear description is it?Is this the correct one?What else is on Other? I'm a bit worried about changing lots of "other"  things.Thanks in advanceDave F.

In the properties of the beam you can change the structural usage (girder, joist, bracing etc.). When you drew the beam it automaticly was set to "other". It should probably be set to a different usage, then when you try to change the lineweight it will be in the correct sub-catagory. Also, as you are drawing your beams you can go to the options bar and set it to make them a specific usage instead of automaticly assigning them. Hope this helps.
