I have a metric part with an English threaded hole. When creating a metric drawing, how can I inherit the proper threaded hole callout onto the print (ie: 1/2-13 x 16mm or similar)?

I have tried using the "Feature Parameters" tool, but the thread callout comes in as "1/2 x 1.95" as in 1/2" x 1.95mm pitch...

When using the Feature Parameters tool, selection of the standard "ansi" option is greyed out, leaving only "ansi-mm", "iso-din", and "jis".

I'd appreciate help on this. Thanks.
