Learned a shortcut from an old school drafter in Tulsa

Met a guy named Ray at a trade show in Tulsa who showed me how to use the layer manager to batch change line weights across 50 sheets. He did in 10 minutes what would take me an hour of clicking each drawing. Has anyone else picked up a weird trick from a random conversation like that?

I get what Ray was doing, but batch changing line weights that fast can mess up your set if you aren't careful. Sometimes the slow way saves you from catching errors later.

Used to be on your side about that stuff honestly. But watching Ray work changed my mind. He had a checklist he ran through every time to catch those errors before they hit the prints.
