Line Width

Synopsis

&DENS(obj)

Description

Accesses the line width for all geometric objects. This EDA is READ/WRITE which means you can extract and/or edit the line width of the specified object.

Use &TYPWID to control line width for specific object types including dimensions and drafting aids.

NOTE: Although &DENS and &LWIDTH perform the same functions, it is recommended that you use &LWIDTH to access the line width.
