I have a metal building with exterior metal wall panels that have 1" horizontal reveals at 12" O.C. drawn as void sweeps. The lineweight of the sweeps is too heavy, but I do not know how to adjust it without adjusting all of the lines associated with walls. Is there a way to adjust only the lineweight of the sweeps? I would prefer to be able to do it for all at one time rather than manually for each and every reveal.

view properties->visibility/graphic overides->expand walls -> set wall sweeps in projection surface or cut via override.

I misspoke earlier. They are not sweeps, but reveals instead. In the Type Properties dialog for this reveal, only two categories are displayed: Constraints - Default Setback and Construction - Profile. In the Object Styles dialog box under the Walls category I only find Common Edges, Hidden Lines and Wall Sweeps - Cornice. If I override the Wall Sweeps - Cornice lineweight, then my downspouts, which are sweeps, will change as directed, but the reveals do not change. I tried adding another Walls category called Reveals, but I do not know how to associate it with the reveals. Any other thoughts?

Hate to revive an old thread, but I am having the same exact problem with the reveals in elevation. They are showing up as a profile line.......anyway to override these without having to do one at a time?

Not from a global standpoint on Object Styles--but, you could "select all instances in project" and then apply the override?

looks like it's not working for reveal, maybe its override being eaten by wall?
