Profile Lines

[johnnyprc]

I am forcing myself to draw more in CA to see if I can develop a flow that I can then speed up (hopefully save some time). One thing I always provide on my drawings - each one of them - are profile lines. I even provide profiles for my floor plans - in CA though the "siding" layer ends up somewhat creating that for me. Even though we are supposed to provide that line on the outside of windows and doors, I don't bother.

The only way I have figured out how to draw profile lines in CA is to redraw over the drawing line by line. Because lines auto-connect, I can't easily select outside lines and change their line weight. Does anyone have a better suggestion?? If you saw how fast it was to do these lines in Vectorworks you might understand more my frustration in finding something that works well in CA. Sketchup even does a fairly good job of placing profiles lines automatically.
