Were's the Pitch 1

I'm detailing a part in 2005 SP0.1

I'm using metric hardware and all holes were created using the hole wizard selecting size and pitch.

When I go to detail I use the hole callout and it shows up as a threaded hole with most of the information but the pitch is missing. Instead of getting M8x1.25 I just get M8.

I looked in the calloutformat.txt but didn't find anything about a pitch callout. The callout for the tapped hole is given as <hw-threaddesc>, which is the same as the imperial threads which detail fine.

Any suggestions for making this work?
