Summary: Silhouette lines should be able to be overridden in the Object Styles settings.

Description: Silhouette lines should be able to be overridden in the Object Styles settings.

How Used: One silhouette line override does not cut it. Objects like gutters and wall sweeps should not have the same thickness of silhouette line as walls and roofs. I would override these objects so that they had either a thin silhouette or no silhouette at all. Important note: overriding a sweep to have no silhouette line shouldn't narrow the default wall silhouette line where the sweep is at the corner or edge of the wall.

Feature Affinity: Views - Elevations and Sections

You can already do that.
Look at the subcategory of walls. Youcan add addtion actegories for sweeps. As you define the sweep it can be assigned a subcategory.
Look at the subcategory of roofs. Gutters and fascia have their own control.

What you can't control are reveals (of any type) and sweeps which are a part of the wall definition.

You can change the object styles for the object, but it doesn't change the silhouette line. The silhouette line is fixed in the view.
