Hi,
Why I cannot use Trace Thickness in below plot?
The reason is a silly limit in Primes plots which is introduced because the developers decided that it does not make much sense to plot too many points per trace.
Up to 4999 points you can format the plot at will
From 5000 points up to 49999 points you cannot choose any line style other than "solid" or "none' and you cannot chose any symbol other than the round dot or none
Starting with 50000 points you just get a thin line as you experienced and can't change anything other than the color.
These limits apply per trace, not the sum of all traces.
The unfortunately rather confusing and often unhelpful help only says succinctly
• For XY plots, you can plot up to 2000000 points. For polar plots you can plot up to 50000 points. However, full formatting is only available for up to 5000 points.
See: To Change the Number of Plotted Points
This help information is confusing (its not clear if the limit applies to polar plots only or to xy-plots as well), its wrong (as the number should be 4999) and its incomplete (as it does not mention the difference between the 4999 and the 49999 limit).
Your range for R3 demands 93201 points to be plotted and this exceeds both limits (4999 and 49999).
Solution is easy - simply reduce the number of point by choosing a larger step width (larger second value) in your range R3
