Inventor 10 - Changing line props of "Included" sketches in IDWs

Hey,

I'm trying to make a drawing of a complicated tubing system that must only display the centre lines on the drawing for clarity.

I have been experimenting with "Get Model Sketches" command and "including" the 3D sketches used to make the tubing. In the drawing they show up as centre lines, of course. Is there a way of changing them to solid lines? Or any other for that matter.

I believe this is the same problem with Included 2D sketches, but I think you can work around that by copying the sketch from the model and pasteing into a sketch on the drawing.

Any help would be great. Thanks.
