View Thread Sectional View of an Assembly

Hello

I have a problem with the representation of tapping in the drawing of an assembly.

When I make a projected view, you can see the thread (see attached screenshot, projected view on the far left).

But when I make a cut, it's impossible to display the thread of the tap!

Any solutions to offer me please?

I specify that I did the tapping in the part file and not the assembly.
I checked the thread representations in the settings.
The thread appears in the part file but not in the assembly.

Hello thomas.taillefumier,

First of all, my best wishes.
1 - Did you go through the insert function of the model?
2- If not, then try to go through it by simply checking the representation of the nets.
3 - Otherwise you open your 3D model, you go to the tapping function, you edit it and you click on thread representation, you close without saving, and it should reappear...

I'll take screenshots to explain:

1 -So for the first part, I can't take a screenshot because it works very well, but it happened in other versions.

2 - Same as 1 car works very well with us.

3- Here is the screenshot concerned

then:


Good luck @+.

Hello, best wishes.

I went through the drilling assistant to do the tapping.
I tried your solutions but nothing helps.
I think I'm going to cheat by showing the part and not the assembly for the cut

Hello again,
Ok, tell me your version and or if you can send your 3D model...
I encountered this problem on the 2018 and 2020 versions, when doing my little trick it worked, but sometimes not at all.

Hello, I think it's a normal operation of SolidWorks not to show the thread on an assembly. To be confirmed, however...

Hello
Are you in "display of thread representations" in "High quality"?
Did you create the cut before or after importing the thread representations?

Hello
By default, solidworks does not display the threads of subcomponents in assembly drawings,
You have to import them by clicking on " Model object", "Thread representation"
You can select just the desired views or check " Import to all views "

Normally this should solve your problem.

It is also necessary that the display of annotations in the part and in the assembly is on display.

Great thank you very much @joris !

Thank you all for your answers.
Rim-b: I had tried to check/uncheck high quality and create the cut before and after tapping but it didn't work.
