GAS Threads

(OP)
Hi,
I need to make a BSP external thread.
I add this at the end of the thd_metric.dat under C:\Programmi\UGS\NX 7.0\UGII, but I don't see this thread.

RE: GAS Threads

First, are these 'tapered' threads?  If so, you have to indicate that by using the name 'GAS,1'.  As for getting them to appear in the list of available Symbolic Treads, you need to go to...

Customer Defaults -> Modeling -> Feature Settings -> Symbolic Threads

...and add 'GAS' to the list of threads in the section of the dialog titled 'Form'.
