I know in my thread standards, there is a "Thread Diameter" and a "Nominal Diameter".

Is there a way to get the threads to show up in the 3D model?
I've only ever been able to see them on Drawings.

Also, is there a setting to specify a default depth for each thread size in the Thread Standards?
 
In Functional Tolerancing & Annotation (FTA) workbench, there is a tab called "Geometry for 3D Annotations", and therein "Thread Representation Creation"...

regards,
LWolf
 
Another possibility:
using command Tap - Thread analysis.

Hmm, thanks for the input, I was hoping I could just turn a setting on and have them always visible.
For example, Creo models all threads as s surface, so they are always in the model.

Is there a way to set a depth of every thread in the standards so it will be a good starting place?
