how to control default line width of pen or bezier

Postby tinkergeek » Sat Nov 18, 2017 5:20 am

Hi

Seems basic but i can't find this option. Where do i control the default line width of the freeform pen or bezier. I know about the stroke width for objects but when I draw a line the default is very thin and faint.

thanks.

Double-click on the icon for the tool. Then select an object with the desired line width on canvas. Then click on 'this tool's own style' + 'take from selection'.
