Threaded representation

mdjeredjian

Hi, my name is Manuel

I wanted to check if there is any way to represent a thread as in the other parametric drawing software. I already watch the videos of how to generate the thread in the piece but when I want to make the plan I can not get the appropriate technical representation


Thank you very much and sorry for my poor English

You can use the hole feature to add cosmetic threads to a hole (only appears as a thread in drawings)
but there is no cosmetic thread for external

With the introduction of decals - This is my first try at making cosmetic threads

This is eye candy only, doesn't show up in drawings or BOM'S (or even thumbnails) - But it does give the correct look , maybe someone else can run with this idea.

      p.s.  look at different configurations

Yes! And that should happen automatically!

I don't have thread call outs implemented for the bolt & screw files listed above(but correct size & description does show up in 

BOM) - this might not be useful to professional users, but anyone should feel free to copy said files into there own personal library if they like them.
