We have certain files we need to change our Thin Line widths to .08

We know that people will forget to change this manually and if they do, too often they will forget to change it back to .12 when they print anything else.

Reason for this if you are curious.... There are certain drawings we need to show the Smooth Edges in the view and the product has a lot of curves, so the view fills up with these lines and it is hard to pick out the tooling when we print them. So we are going to partially shade the tooling and make the smooth edges extra thin so they are not so prominent.

I was hoping to record a journal but it doesnt seem to work. In the journal, every line width has a warning that replay will be unreliable and it may as well just say they will not work in replay. lol

Is it possible to make settings that always plot smooth edges at .08 thick? Or is it possible to get a journal to actually adjust the Custom Width settings for Plot?
