Showing Threads in the Top and Side Views in Drawings
To display threads in drawings according to the ANSI, ISO or JIS standard, use the thread_standard Detail option in conjunction with hlr_for_threads.
To display the threads in accordance with the ANSI standard, set thread_standard Detail option to std_ansi, std_ansi_imp, or std_ansi_imp_assy.
To display the threads in accordance with the ISO 6410 standard, set thread_standard Detail option to std_iso, std_iso_imp, or std_iso_imp_assy.
To display the threads in accordance with the JIS standard, set thread_standard Detail option to std_jis.
For assembled thread the display is as follows:
thread_standard
Display
std_ansi_imp_assy
std_iso_imp_assy
std_jis
For visible thread the display is as follows:
thread_standard
Display
std_ansi_imp_assy
std_iso_imp_assy
std_jis
An incomplete thread is always displayed. In a view seen from one end of a thread, the minor diameter of the thread is represented by an incomplete circle almost equivalent to ¾ of its complete circumference. The open quadrant is at the upper right or at the lower left.
For hidden thread the display is as follows:
thread_standard
Display
std_ansi_imp_assy
std_iso_imp_assy
std_jis
An incomplete thread is always displayed. In a view seen from one end of a thread, the major diameter of the thread is represented by an incomplete circle almost equivalent to ¾ of its complete circumference.
 
While inserting the cosmetic thread, if you select UpTo Surface as the depth of a cosmetic thread, then in the drawing the useful length limit of the thread that is represented by the intersection between the cosmetic thread quilt and the reference surface is invisible when hlr_for_threads Detail option is set to yes.
hlr_for_threads = no
1. Start
2. Cosmetic Thread Quilt
3. Intersection between cosmetic thread quilt and reference surface
4. Reference surface
5. Depth
hlr_for_threads = yes
1. Start
2. Depth
 
* If you change the setting for the hlr_for_threads Detail option, then the drawing reflects the changes only after you update the drawing by clicking Review > Update Sheets.
While inserting the cosmetic thread, if you select any other option for defining the Depth, then in the drawing, the useful length limit is always displayed in thick solid line or thin dash line according to whether it is visible or hidden.
1. Hidden useful length limit
2. Visible useful length limit
In the ISO-standard display, if the bolt diameter equals the hole thread diameter, and the bolt thread diameter equals the hole diameter, then the bolt covers the hole’s crosshatch if one of these conditions exists:
The bolt and hole are coaxial.
Both axes are in the cross section.
The cross section itself is planar and parallel to the screen (normal to the viewing direction).
In the case of an offset cross section, the portion of the cross section that intersects the bolt or hole pair must be planar and parallel to the screen.
