History of Threads 1

[KLineDesign]

I just happened to Notice that SW2016 has a "Thread" feature now that picks up an edge and then models actual threads. It's lateness to the party made me wonder: How long has UG/NX had the detailed "Thread"? I recall it being there for sure in NX2, and I seem to recall it as far back as UG15, but I think it was even before that. So, anyone know?

I suspect that it was around UG V13.0, which was released in July, 1997.

V13 sounds right for the thread feature.
Drafting could not read the thread note until V14. It was one of my complaints as a beta tester.

I'll buy that since Drafting support with respect to a new modeling feature often took at least one release.

Would be time anyway that this Feature is replaced with a new type similar to the hole feature threads...
