I'm not sure when it changed, but now when I add a threaded hole the Thread Class is unchecked by default and the hole callout doesn't show it either. This applies to both 2007 and 2008. I can manually check the Thread Class option, but I distinctly remember that in 2006 the thread class used to show up in drawing hole callouts by default. Any ideas are appreciated.

There's no settings that apply to this in calloutformat.txt...just the callout format itself. It's something that is added by Hole Wizard when it creates the tapped hole feature.

As far as I know, there's no API access for it either.
