    Default line weights in Revit

    Does anyone have a chart/model with 96 or more line weights on it-for adjusting your plot settings?

    Revit doesn't allow for more than 16 different lineweights. I'm not even sure what you are asking.

    Not exactly sure what your asking but you could check out the handout from the Revitizing NCS that was taught at AU in 2008 and 2009

    This is what I was looking for. sort of. I wanted to make our Revit drawings match our AutoCAD drawings as much as possible. I hadn't altered the lineweights from the default settings.

    it's the idea of 96 line weights that throws me for a loop..... NCS calls for 9, ranging from 0.13 mm to 2mm. seems that that would be a great plenty for nearly every technical drawing.

    Lineweights for different scales. I could have 6 weights for 16 scales, 8 weights, 8 scales, or some other combination.

    Kind of moot, now.
