thick construction lines and section tracks

Dott.Rise

Hello to all boys,
I'm trying with a year project on solidworks (before I use a cad3d) but I'm having little trouble using sw14. I searched, but I found nothing to do with my case.
In particular, what I cannot handle is the thickness of the lines when I make a table.
I'll explain better. according to law the trace of a section on parallel floors must be thick "to the edges" (according to the arrow) and during the plane changes and Thin elsewhere. What I did is something like this:
Freno.webpHowever, I would like to emphasize more the difference between one line and the other (maybe thinning the point). just like this picture found in the forum:

Esempio.webpHow can I do that? I tried to play with the settings but nothing to do.

other thing... lines of construction (from the law taken from thin point) are given to me by sw as a trait-treat despite I go to change the type of line from the properties. Is there a way to change them in this case?

in both cases the path I make is:
options->property of the line-> style-> and change the lines as suggested. However:
1) I can not make a thick start of line and a thin continuation (useful in the section track);
2) Despite changing the "center" line does not seem to implement changes in the construction lines.

I hope to have been clear :confused:
thanks in advance
 
in toolbar display->format line find all commands to manage the style of individual entities.
you can also assign entities to specific levels (such as autocad layers) each of which may have different color, line, thickness.
the levels found in toolbar display->levels
 
we start from the easy:
-On the second figure the line of the decomposed section is not set by the options of the document. to change it you have to right-click the line (not the sketch, but the one you indicated) and change the voices edge
-on the line you see in the staggered section the only solution is to select it with the right button and choose hide

for the rest:
- Section lines are managed in document options>viste>section
-idem for line type

perfect with this I solved the construction lines: I can define the point section! Thank you! :smile:

I will be explained badly and I have not paid attention to highlight my problem;
in this image here I can clearly see the two thicknesses the thin (red) and the thick (green):
Esempio1.webpin my the difference of thicknesses in the section track is not so distinguishable.
Freno 1.webpIs there a way to emphasize this difference? Maybe even more thinning the point trait! also because going into the property of the document, views, sections, I can't get the result I want
 
the thickness of the line you can change it with the methods described above, but as far as I know the thickness of the ends decides the system and you can do nothing; If I'm wrong and someone knows how to do I'll be happy to learn something new.
 
I jumped a part and I thought the second picture was your file.
but be careful that what you indicate in the first image (the view with the dissected hole) the difference of thickness is only on the change of trajectory i.e. on the angle at 90°.
on your file you see less because you have set a thick line thickness, decrease the thickness that must be lower than the geometry line in sight (a 0.18 is enough) and you will see better the difference
 
ok, the fact that you can't decide the thickness at will I regret, considering that I spent the last two days figuring out how to change the track! :mad:
I set a thickness of 0.25 that guarantees me the deviations of the 90° section planes with a thickness very similar to the 0.35 of the edges in sight and the dot section definitely more "light" than before.
I was unable to reduce the track to a thickness of 0.18: the legislation prevents me from making traces of the changes in the section plan with thin thickness.
problem (almost) solved.
Thank you so much, guys! :finger:
