Here I have an assembly that is a supply. This supply has been modified by us, we have added 4 M10 threads. So I create an assembly assembly with assembly functions.
My problem is that the taps are almost good on a single tap, the others start from the bottom of the drill and there is no 3/4 of a circle above that allows me to dimension them on a plane.
I tried everything, I redid the sub-assembly, I redid the head assembly, I did a thread 4 times instead of making a pack of 4, I tried with a repetition.... I even redrew the part on which the taps come, I sketched from a plan and not from the front.... in short I don't know what to do anymore.
Hello
For thread representations in assemblies,
- If you want to make the annotation appear, you must use the "Symbol for Drilling" tool on the Annotation toolbar in the drawing.
- If you want the shaded thread representation to appear, make sure you have enabled this option in each of the relevant parts and assemblies files.
To do this, you have to right-click on the "Annotations" folder, then go to "Details" and check "Shaded thread representations".
Or:
To retrieve your thread representations in an assembly drawing you must go through: Insert, model objects, check Thread representation and validate.

I would add that the assembly functions are not necessarily visible from the 3D viewers (eDrawing, 3dVia,...); and I haven't checked in transfer formats (Step, IGS, .... or pdf 3D)
for example a removal of material on an ASM is not seen in the viewer: risk of problems....
for my part an assembly is only used to assemble PRTs or subassemblies: so no PRT functions
In fact, it's a supply that I receive as is from the supplier and then, internally, we do the tapping, which is why there is this function in the assembly.
Sometimes, I play with the icon of the type of representation (in the options pad), switching from one representation to another solves the problem (and it remains quite stable over time)
It's tinkering but with this kind of software behavior, there aren't many solutions.
The other solution, if you can not keep the asm structure of the supplier part, is to save the asm as a part (file/save as, choose "all components"), so the hole will be a function of parts. If you need several positions, then you have to go through the "Insert - function - move/copy... "
Incidentally, that's what I try to do in general: it reduces the number of files to manage, it avoids modifying it accidentally, it avoids this kind of problem.
