@yuval_taff - It is not currently possible to control the hatch pattern in a drawing. We will be adding this capability.

Hi @yuval_taff !

When you say a "Drawing" Do you mean a Part Studio or an Onshape Drawing?

If you just mean a Part Studio, you can right click on the part who's appearance you want to change and click "Edit appearance for part X..."

Changing the material of the part is useful for mass properties and similar measurements, but does not change the appearance of the part:

Hi @yuval_taff
Are you trying to change the line weight/thickness of a drawing view?
Or are you referring to changing the hatch lines of a drawing view?

I refer to the hatch lines, there's a way to change it?
