Copy threads option in wave link dialog box
Copy threads option in wave link dialog box
(OP)
Hi All,
When I revise the drawing and updated views, Symbolic threads going off...from my admin found that the issue is with Wave link body. When I checked wave link body dialog box (Edit parameters) I found that in settings there is an option called "copy threads". I did turn it on and updated the drawing... threads are showing now.
Questions:
1. symbolic threads are done in machining file after we wave link the body, how is wave link body is related to threads???
2. I did not see this option before, In which version this option was inculded? we recently shifted from NX7.5 to NX8
Thanks in Advance

RE: Copy threads option in wave link dialog box
As for when this option to copy threads was added, it was in NX 8.0 and includes 'Linked-Bodies', 'Extracted-Bodies', 'Instanced-Bodies' and 'Mirrored-Bodies'.

RE: Copy threads option in wave link dialog box
I wrote an ER on this since the machining guys could not see on their linked bodies if holes should be threaded or not. Neither would it be visible on a drawing of the linked body.
