This command allows the user to select a group of
contours/plines and change their width for emphasis when
plotting. Prior to running this command, the desired contours
can be isolated to their own layer using the Highlight Index Contours command, or
if already on a separate layer you may use Isolate Layer from the View menu.
An alternate to using this routine is to assign an AutoCAD
lineweight to the layer
that the contours or polylines are on and set the Display Lineweight toggle at the
bottom of the screen. If using this routine to assign a polyline
width, then this new width will display regardless of the
lineweight toggle.
Pulldown Menu Location: Surface >> Modify Contours
Keyboard Command: cwidth
Prerequisite: Contour polylines should be drawn and visible
on the screen.
