NX7.5.5.4 Threads in Part Family
(OP)
I am creating a new fastner for example nut. I have created a part family members for each size of nut. Now I want to change thread size for each member (different size for different family member). How to change thread size. I have tried adding thread feature in coloum but only one thread size applies to all members.

Also I've attached below a simple example that I hacked together showing how you can control the thread size of a Family Table part.

I am using inch threads. I tried entering 5/16-24, 3/8-16, 9/16-18 in the part family columns. But it didn't work.

I wish Siemens should come up with simple way to do this in the next version of UG. Amount of time we invest in such simple things which does not add value to product development does not justify.
