Printed Dimensions (lines)

Post by chrism3d »

Am I able to alter the thickness of dimension lines so they are finer, especially when printed. Have altered font size but line thickness appears to remain same.

I have also had this issue. When printing to Pdf, the lines of the measurement tool appear thicker than they do in sh3d. I would really like a way to resolve this without having to draw all the lines in by hand.

Even when printing to 24x36" @ 300dpi, the measurement tool lines come in so thick that they confuse the image. I am talking about the dashed lines connecting the measurement to the thing being measured.

Otherwise I have been a happy user of sweet home 3d for years.

Any help would be great, thanks

If you replace them by polylines, you can specify the thickness.
Not a perfect solution, but...

I would rather suggest to copy / paste the plan in a word processing software or export it to SVG and try to print the SVG file. Would the lines be rendered differently?
