I have a 1:4 Tapered Thread connection and at the bottom I have a parallel thread. The parallel thread is created by cosemtic threads, and the taper thread is created by cosmetic surface.
When I create a detail of this assembly in PRO Detail (In No hidden mode), and unhide some of the thread and cut lines, the parallel thread does not show on screen, even though it highlighted.The tapered thread is ok. Is there anyway they can be shown, or is it a glitch in PRO E?

Thanks

Think what you are seeing is normal. Cosmetic thread surfaces and regular surface features don't play by the same set of rules. Help says you can't erase 'em via edge display so guess you can't mod 'em at all. You can reference the cosmetic thread silhouettes for draft entity constraints.
