Thread callout in NX6 extra space.
Thread callout in NX6 extra space.
(OP)
I have an issue where the thread callout gives me too much space between the "1/4-20" and UNC for example. I have been editing the -20 and the UNC, It appears that there is a space after the -20 and one before the UNC. This is driving me nuts. How can I fix this?

But that seems to work for the old thread call out. The new thread are getting there info some where else. I have since read other posts that give the unhelpful responce of "that will be fixed in later versions"
Again thankyou for your Responce

That "later version" was NX 7.5, which has been available for some time now.

I realize that 7.5 and now 8 have been released. Where I am working and where I have worked in the past have had to wait for GM, GE, Pratt & Whittney and who ever else to change over. I also am aware that you can't go back to fix all of the issues that arise, we wouldn't be able to progress forward, and in most cases I think NX has done a great job with their new stuff.

We are running NX 7.5.0.32 and it still does the space after the thread callout and UNC. Is there a newer version of 7.5 that this has been fixed?

For reference see, ASME Y14.6-2001, page 8, shows the thread callout WITH the space.

I meant that in NX 7.5 it still does TWO spaces after so it looks like "1/4-20 UNC-2B". I had to manually correct the XML file as 4gts stated (which worked well).I was just confused because it has been this way since NX 6, NX 4 is the last version that we had that did not have two spaces.
