If I have a view that has a scale not listed in the lineweights dialog...

What is Revit using??

It uses the next lower scale.

Since "lower" could easily have opposite interpretations, I'll be more specific:

If the view's scale is set to 3/8"=1'-0", the scale the lineweights will use is the 1/2"=1'-0".

If the view's scale is set to 3/4"=1'-0", the scale the lineweights will use is the 1"=1'-0".

I've attached a graphic for further clarification...

Minor correction: it selects the closest scale, not the next smaller one. "Closest" is confusing too, do you want me to define it?

Yes, I think I understand, but not to split hairs...

What if the scale is exactly in-between two?

But this is splitting hairs. ;-)

Say, you've defined 1" = 1' and 1" = 2'. The scale that's exactly in the middle (to Revit) is 1"=1'-6", does not really exist but never mind. For that scale it would go with the 1"=1' pens.

Since we are splitting hairs, I think you mean to say 1/2"=1'-0" instead of 1" = 2', and 5/8"=1' rather than 1"=1'-6"
