Thread display in drawing
(OP)
Hi,
I made a drawing of a worm shaft, but it turned out to be this

I don't want it showed like this, how do I change it to a engineering formation?
I have tried some ways searched on the internet, but it didn't work.
If anyone knows the problem, plz tell me.
Thanks.

search CATIA doc for threads in Part Design...

RE: Thread display in drawing
I know there's a function "thread/tap" in part design, but the worm shaft wasn't made by it, that is why the drawing shows like a 3D projection.
catia only changes a product into engineering form when it was made by the function in Drafting, I guess.
So, I wonder a way to change the part automatically if the part wasn't made by thread function.
Actually, it's a worm, but I think there might be a function for it.
Thanks.
RE: Thread display in drawing
I am not clear with your requirement.What exactly u want to show up in drafting? Please clarify.

RE: Thread display in drawing
I guess you want to display the thread in the form of engineering drawing conventional representation..
I think it's not possible to have it without using the "thread/tap" function.
Since it is custom made by the user, i think it's not possible to display the thread convention..
Please correct me anyone who knows that this is possible..

RE: Thread display in drawing
If you want Eng. representation of the thread in drawing, then you need it in 3D.
