RE: Dimensioning Thread
In NX 7.5 is possible. When you are in Drafting go to Feature Parameters - it is located in Dimension bar ( use Command Finder if you cant find it ) select feature ( thread ) select view and click ok.

RE: Dimensioning Thread
After short search I found it, thank you vary much. It is quite a work for simple dimension of thread but it is possible.
@FORMDES
here is more specific instructions:
1. click on "feature parameters" icon in "dimension toolbar" or Insert/Dimension/Feature Parameters,
2. in desired projected view select only tread lines
3. in window that opened click on "select view" icon than select edges of projected view with tread
4. click OK
VOILA, here it is. It seems that it is easier to write "M" manually than do this
Best regards
