    strokeWeight(10);  // Beastly
    line(20, 70, 80, 70);
Description | Sets the width of the stroke used for lines, points, and the border around shapes. All widths are set in units of pixels.

Workarounds include setting the pixel using set() or drawing the point using either circle() or square().
