Is there a way to find out the default (-3) lineweight?

There is an option for autocad_resolved_linetype but can't find a similar option for when lineweight is set to default (-3)

Hi @deanhowell,

Are you looking for what the line weight is aka what it resolves to correct (either 0, 5, 9 etc)? Essentially you're looking for an autocad_resolved_lineweight attribute.

Please let me know if that's what you are looking for. If that is what you're looking for, we'll need to see if this enhancement is possible as we'll need to see if the libraries have support to pull this information out.

Hello @andreaatsafe, yes that is exactly what I need, autocad_resolved_lineweight attribute.

There is one for linetype but not for line weight.

Hi @deanhowell,

Thanks for confirming!

 

I've filed an issue for our development team to add in this capability (FMEENGINE-64023). This question has been linked to the issue, so I'll be sure to notify you here when it's been implemented.
