    Do you mean a note in the 2D drawing? Or something else?

    not a note. like in Solidworks you can display the threads in 3d drawing, after selecting hole and setting all the settings the threads are not able to be seen

    Most often you keep threads suppressed in a 3D model as it adds to the complexity of the model.  A quick search on here will throw up discussions on this.  If you need threads for 3d printing there is an awesome feature script to do that.  I'll try and find the link when I have a moment.  If it's just cosmetic I sometimes drop a helix in there to remind myself there is a thread.
