    In the example below, Hole.1 is threaded when Hole.2 is not

  • In the preview,
    Threaded hole

    Non-threaded hole

    In the example below, the hole on the right is threaded when the hole on the left is not.


    To display threaded holes on a drawing, make sure Generate threads check box is selected in the Drafting settings. To do so, go to Tools > Options > Mechanical Design > Drafting > View tab.
