I am working on drawings and need to change the line weight of a cutting line through a cross section. I cannot change the cutting lines using the line style manager and I need a different line style that what is available with cutting_line options in the drawing properties. Is this option available with Creo 2.0?

If this is an assembly, you solution may be to use component display in the layout tab of the drawing. You can change the linestyle of components of an assembly.

In the drawing under the layout tab, component display, the menu manager pops up, select a component you want to show in phantom, select ok, select phantom transparent (or opaque, you have to experiment to see what work for you).

I have been searching around for an option to map the cross section cut lines, not hatch lines, to another pen in the pen table but cant seem to find what I am looking for. Is it possible to map different types of lines to different pens?
