I was working on my project when I had a vary of pen thickness on my drawing, then all of them changed to 0.01. When I try to change one of them to 0.18 and 0.35, etc. it doesn't do it, it can change color, the size won't change at all. I think I changed a setting or something??? need help. But If i open up a new document pen thickness works.

Help will be much appreciated.

You are probably aware of the fact that there are different Pen Sets available.
Model Viewpoints such as Floor Plan, Sections etc have their Pen Sets setting, then the Layout Book also has its own Pen Set setting.
Also, Drawings placed in Viewpoints or on Layouts have their own Pen Set setting.
I wonder if it has to do with something like this.

You can also see if your On-Screen Display Option for True Line Weight has been turned off (this only effects display, not output).
