Setting Line widths for PrintPDFBuilder

[NXGrunt]

Hi,
I am beating my head against a wall trying to get the Journal I am using to export PDFs to set the line widths.

See Code snippet below, The variable 'thinLineWidth' is a Boolean. If it is true I get the correct thin line output from the PDF. If it is false, I should get the custom three widths but the output PDF does not change.

I did record a few journals while exporting a few PDFs to analyze the code there and I don't see what could be missing. Other than widthDefinition1.Use is set to 0 for single width and 1 for custom three widths. I have tried including it in the code but I get no change to the output.

The log file shows all the variables are set to the correct values.

Help Please!

		'Set Custom Widths
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(0).Width = 0.252 
			
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(0).Name = "PDF Custom Normal" 
			
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(1).Width = 0.42 
			
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(1).Name = "PDF Custom Thick" 
			
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(2).Width = 0.08 
			
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(2).Name = "PDF Custom Thin" 
		
		
		If _thinLineWidth Then
			lg.WriteLine("	PDF Output Set to Thin Line Width")
			printPDFBuilder1.Widths = PrintPDFBuilder.Width.SingleWidth
			printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().SingleSource = 2
		Else
			lg.WriteLine("	PDF Output set to Custom Three Width")
			printPDFBuilder1.Widths = PrintPDFBuilder.Width.CustomThreeWidths
		End If
		
		lg.WriteLine("	Single Source: " & printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().SingleSource.ToString)
		lg.WriteLine("	Custom Width(2) size: " & printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(2).Width.ToString)		
		lg.WriteLine("	Custom Width Name(2): " & printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition().GetCustomWidths(2).Name.ToString)	
		lg.WriteLine("	Widths: " & printPDFBuilder1.Widths.ToString)
		lg.WriteLine("	ThinLineWidth: " & _thinLineWidth.ToString)

I recorded journal and I think that You have to use:

printPDFBuilder1.Widths = NXOpen.PrintPDFBuilder.Width.CustomThreeWidths
printPDFBuilder1.DefineWidths()

Dim widthDefinition1 As NXOpen.WidthDefinition = Nothing
widthDefinition1 = printPDFBuilder1.CreateWidthDefinition()

widthDefinition1.Use = 1
widthDefinition1.Single = 0
widthDefinition1.SingleWidth = 0.25
widthDefinition1.SingleSource = 0

Dim customwidths1() As NXOpen.CustomWidth
customwidths1 = widthDefinition1.GetCustomWidths()

customwidths1(0).Width = 0.252
customwidths1(0).Name = "PDF Custom Normal" 

customwidths1(1).Width = 0.42 
customwidths1(1).Name = "PDF Custom Thick" 

customwidths1(2).Width = 0.08
customwidths1(2).Name = "PDF Custom Thin"

There is a comment on recorded code:
' WARNING: use of customwidths1(0) may be unreliable on replay
