When you change the lineweight assigned to a layer, all objects on that
layer assigned the BYLAYER lineweight are updated automatically.
â–  Specify a lineweight for an object to override the layer's lineweight. You
can specify the lineweight of each object explicitly. If you want to override
the layer-determined lineweight of an object with a different one, change
an existing object's lineweight from BYLAYER to a specific lineweight.
If you want to set a specific lineweight for all subsequently created objects,
change the Lineweight property on the Properties Inspector palette when no
objects are selected from BYLAYER to a specific lineweight.

Control the Display Properties of Certain Ob-
jects
You can control how overlapping objects and certain other objects are
displayed and plotted.
Control the Display of Polylines, Hatches, Gradient
Fills, Lineweights, and Text
You can simplify the display of certain kinds of objects in order to speed
performance.
Display performance is improved when wide polylines and donuts, solid-filled
polygons (two-dimensional solids), hatches, gradient fills, and text are
displayed in simplified form. Simplified display also increases the speed of
creating test plots.
Turn Off Solid Fill
When you turn off Fill mode, wide polylines, solid-filled polygons, gradient
fill, and hatches are displayed in outline form. Except for patterned hatches
and gradient fills, solid fill is automatically turned off for hidden view and
nonplan views in three dimensions.
