is there a way to control the lineweight in graphic display options "sketchy lines".  

1. here is the way it comes out in "sketchy lines".. https://www.dropbox.com/s/rrubsvdtxa7hhqq/line%20grab.jpg   window jambs, doors, etc turn into too many lines close togehter and disaplay as fat line blob
2. here is the prefereable thinner lineweight, which I could ony get with screencapture of the thinlines display of the same thing... https://www.dropbox.com/s/rrubsvdtxa7hhqq/line%20grab.jpg

Not in from of my computer but I think it goes by 'object style' and 'visibilty graphics overrides' just like any other element. Override / change the lineweight of walls, doors, windows etc in the view to change the line weights of the sketchy lines. In other words the (wall, door, window) sketchy lines weight are controlled the same way the normal walls etc are. Try this CADclip

a work-around is to change the scale of the drawing.  Only helps if you are using the output as a .jpg and you don't care, can re-size the image.

There's no work around require. It behaves perfectly using normal processes.

Duplicate the view, do a visibility graphics override for lineweight (thinner) for the doors, walls, windows, roofs etc and Bob's your uncle.
