Thread texture rufuses to die!

Thread texture rufuses to die!

Thread texture rufuses to die!

(OP)
Some times I change a hole from Tapped to Clearence in a part. The cosmetic thread disapears out of the build tree, but the thread "texture" graphic, refuses to be removed. What am I missing?

RE: Thread texture rufuses to die!

I've have the same problem, usually I delete the hole and insert a fresh-one into the model. But this isn't the most fun thing to do, especially when your hole-wizard-sketch contains a lot of points. Anyone knows how to fix the problem??

RE: Thread texture rufuses to die!

(OP)
Since posting the question, I have found a fudge. Select the offending hole surface, right click, FACE properties, colour, remove colour. Don't ask me how I found it, but it works!

A, Great WorkAround, Thanks!
