Dear all,

As I am a creo user, I facing a problem with Pen line weight. My drawing units are in MM. But I am unable to set line weight in a decimal place like 0.5 or 0.19 like Auto Cad. What I am getting that dimension line and center line and another reference lines are coming with the same thickness. I have attached the one screenshot of the same. Kindly suggest me how I can set thickness os all lines while working in MM units

    You'll want to set up a pen table file.

    Read the second link again. It describes how to use a pen table and how to set pen widths with a unit designation (only IN and CM are allowed). There's also a link to the Creo help page on pen tables.
