I have added cosmetic thread to a hole wizard feature and I see the hidden line in the drawing. But I dont see the hidden line in the part model. Should it be? (I want it to)

Thanks.

Did it. Still doesnt show up.
-Display filter for ct is checked (in drw, prt, & asm)
-swx06 sp3.3
-nvidia quadro fx 3400/4400

 
Are you talking about the hidden line that shows in a side view or a top view of the hole? If you're looking from the side it only shows up if your view angle is exactly perpendicular to the axis of the hole. Rotate the part by any amount and the cosmetic thread disappears.
 
Look in the View menu, is All Annotations checked?

View->All Annotations. That was it. Now even the threads in shaded mode show up. Thanks.
