How do I change the thickness, width or lineweight of drip tubing on a design?

When the drip tubing is placed on the design screen it is set to a width of 0.00mm and not to ByLayer. When you change the lineweight in the Explore Layers command for the entire layer, it does not affect the tubing on the design screen because it is preset to a thickness and is not reading the layer setting. To change the thickness of all the tubing on the design:

1. Type _ENTPROP in the Command Line and press Enter.
2. At the Select entities to modify: prompt, type PRO and press Enter.
3. At the Select by properties: prompt, LAYER and press Enter.
4. At the Layer name(s) to select <*>: prompt, type L-DRIP and press Enter.
5. At the Select by properties: prompt, click into the Command Line and press Enter. It is very important that you click into the Command Line before pressing Enter at this point.
6. The Entity Properties box will appear. Change the Lineweight drop down menu to ByLayer and the tubing will begin reading the lineweight from the Explore Layers settings.
