Thread circles appearing in drawings
Thread circles appearing in drawings
(OP)
I'd like to re-open two closed threads and see if people are still having issues (http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=124410 and http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=55587)
On a few weldment drawings, we are getting the inner arcs of threads showing in places they should not be showing (off in some corner, beside the part, etc). I cannot select them to Hide them, and I cannot find what view they are associated too.
It seems to still be an issue (at least for us), anyone have some light the can shed?

Have you tried the latest SP?
Are your video card & driver certified by SW for the version &
OS you are using?
On a side note, all you need do to reference a thread is type the thread number. ( thread559-124410 & thread559-55587 )

Also, these circles do print, so it's not just a visual thing.
And thanx for the thread info ;)

Do you have a mirror feature in the weldment?

I've read a few threads about the 'mirror' feature, but no, this part has no mirrors in it.

I have figured out how to get rid of the ones that "hover" outside the view boundry (the ones you can't select). Just crop the view to the boundry box and they will go away.

RE: Thread circles appearing in drawings
Alolesen, I'm not sure I've 'cropped' views before. How is this done?

I also had this problem and fixed it with the original part resolved or open ......I just changed the setting on the original tapped thread sketch to "hide sketch" using the right hand context menu.
