How to reassociate threads

How to reassociate threads

How to reassociate threads

(OP)
I have a wave linked subtract body that has a thread attached to it. When the subtract body gets relinked the thread doesn't update. Is there anyway to have the thread reference the new face?

RE: How to reassociate threads

Is this a 'Threaded Hole' or the old style 'Thread Feature' added to an existing hole?

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
 

RE: How to reassociate threads

This a subtract feature from mold wizard. The linked body in the part navigator for NX6 calls it "TAPDRILL". I've also had to do it if the hole feature is after one that updates from a linked body. After reattaching the hole the threads don't update. Is there a difference from a thread feature or threaded hole? I've tried to find a way to do this from several previous versions of UG and haven't found a way other than recreating them. That pretty time consuming when you have alot of them.
