Displaying Thread Representations on SW 2017 SP2

Hello

I just switched to SW2017 SP2.

To my surprise, the thread representations in part mode no longer appear as on the 2016 version.

The "Shaded thread representation" option being activated in the options, it only shows me a simple circle around the drill hole....

Is this a bug in the new version?

For information, a tap generated by the "advanced drilling" function does not even indicate the circle :(

Thank you in advance.

you're sure of yourself, you say well on the parts and not in a drawing

since if it's created by the toolbox 

Tapping is done via a sketch and function material removal via a revolution

I use the "piercing assistance" function.

Here's what it gives me as a result:

Yes Exact with Drill Thread Display Option

but in the cup you can't see anything

except the line that represents the outer diameter of the thread in line with it

Hello

After restarting the pc, the resumption of the tapping has returned to normal.

Certainly a problem with the graphics card or windows or SW that had lost its mind....

It is true that sometimes it is necessary to restart the log to get everything in order
