Greetings:

I have a file that was originally modeled and drafted in NX11. I had a need to now open the same file and finish in NX12. When I look at the drafting, some of the threads do not show. It shows the tap drill circle, but not the hidden threads. Would anyone have a clue how to remedy this?

Thanks,

Brent

Didier -- not sure I've ever loaded customer default and drafting standards? We did figure out that if you go in model and change the size or type of hole, then change it back, all the detail shows up in drafting.

Thank you for your initial reply however.

It sounds like the model isn't fully loaded when you open the drawing. Try changing the assembly load options, turn off the partial loading option. Also, make sure the drawing isn't using a "lightweight" representation for the model.

Where do you have the option to change the assembly load options. I'm thinking that is likely it.
