Printing cosmetic threads in drawings
Printing cosmetic threads in drawings
(OP)
I have a drawing of a stud where some portions of the OD are threaded and some are not. I put an isometric view on the drawing, and shaded it to show the cosmetic thread. All is good until I print the drawing and the thread doesn't print. Any ideas?

If it does it's probably a printer driver issue.
RE: Printing cosmetic threads in drawings
The thread does not show in the print preview. Also, I've printed to 2 different printers (from 2 different computers) with the same results.
I looked all through SW Tools>Options and my Print Properties & Print Setup, and can't find anything that seems to apply.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks,

Is the Cosmetic Thread Display set to High Quality or Draft Quality?
RE: Printing cosmetic threads in drawings
I don't see a quality setting for the Drawing itself. Where would I find that?

I tried setting to Draft and creating a new view, but no change. I tried all combinations of these 2 settings, but it didn't make a difference.
Thanks for staying with me on this. I truly appreciate your time.
