Cosm Thds in Assy

Cosm Thds in Assy

Cosm Thds in Assy

(OP)
I was hoping updating to SP3.1 would fix this.
We can have Cosmetic thds in a part and it will show in the part and on it's dwg. But when the part is inserted into an assembly, the cosmetic thds do not show in the assy or the assy dwg. We have tried inserting cosm thds on the dwg, but nothing. Has anyone seen this or know of a way to fix it? Thanks

 In the Drawing, turn the Layer to None.  Then, go to the  
 Insert Model Items menu and turn everything off except
 for the Cosmetic Thread option.  Then the cosmetic
 thds will show then.
