Solidworks Cosmetic Thread!!??

Solidworks Cosmetic Thread!!??

Solidworks Cosmetic Thread!!??

(OP)
Is there a way to change the Cosmetic Thread Callout?  I made the hole using the hole wizard feature, but when I go to make the callout, it just says:  "10-32 Tapped Hole"  Is there any specific txt. file for the cosmetic thread callout?  I browsed thru the calloutformat.txt and already made some changes I wanted for some of the other callouts, but I cannot seem to find anything for cosmetic thread.

P.S.  I know if I go to annotations and insert hole callout, I can get what I want. But my boss just wants to right click the hole and insert callout, which gives me the "10-32 Tapped Hole"

Thanks for any help!

RE: Solidworks Cosmetic Thread!!??

Have you tried using the Insert > Model Items callout option?

cheers

I want to be a standard, I don't want to do it every time I create a drawing
