I have a linked Cad file and have set up under my import export settings to match certain Cad color numbers to specific Revit lineweights(1-16).  Right now  if I import the CAD file, the lineweights show up correctly.  However if I link the CAD file and I place it in the 3d view (don't ask why, has to do with needing to crop views) it seems to show the correct lineweight in the 3d view, but not on the cropped view in the sheet.  Instead in simply shows and prints all lines with the same thickness.

 

Getting pretty frustrated...any help is greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks.

Just wanted to add in that I also went under object styles--Imported files and set it up to match the particular layers to the revit lineweight that I want them to display as.
