Symbolic Thread Display in a Revolved Section

[GTI18T]

We just upgraded to NX4 from NX2 and there is a problem with threads displaying in revolved section views. the problem occurs when the threaded hole is on a section leg that is not parallel to the view vector. the threads are displayed it's just that the line that indicates the end of the threads is moved to be directly in line with the geometry in the parent view. has anyone else experianced this problem? if so is there a fix?
Thanks,
Pat

Better off asking this type of question to GTAC or on the internal BBS.

I have verified that when showing either a schematic or detailed thread, that the display fails as described, but it works fine for simplified threads. I also verified that this was working correctly in NX 2 and NX 3, but now fails in NX 4.

I have opened a PR and will keep you uptodate as to when it cen be expected to be fixed.

I will update the PR to include simplified threads that are not full threads, which is what my test models used.
