Help Required - Wide Lines in Title Block

[swmarais]

I hope someone can help me...

When I import the attached title block into my project the Wide Lines defined in the frame simply does not plot wide when printing the sheets from the model...

I guess it is a beginner error

Any other tips or tricks with setting up a title block will also be appreciated

Thanks

Is it an AutoCAD file you are importing?
If I were you, I will translate all the AutoCAD lines into Revit lines.

Also check your object style in sheets i.e. line weights definition.

Did you check to make sure the the object styles were set correct in the project. If you got the object styles dialog, under annotations, Titleblocks, look to see what the wide lines weight is set to. When you import a family into the project if the sub category is already in the project the family will take on those settings. If it's not their it will import with the settings of the family the first time, any other time if you import with will then inherent what the project object styles are.

When I opened your family and then added it to a project I find that I can control the line weight of the line style "Wide". If you load the title block and the lines are thinner then your project setting is lighter than the family. Revit protects the project setting at the expense of the family. You'll find "Wide" in Object Styles > Annotation Objects > Titleblocks > Wide...check the pen value there.

YIP... Beginner error...
Object styles were correct, BUT...
I never realized that there is an Annotation Line Weight Table.
I guess that is what happens when you rush modelling through the night
