Platform Information:
================================
Problem is platform specific: Unknown
Platform: Intel Win764-bit, NX8.5.1.3
Problem verified on the following platforms and OS versions:
Intel Win764-bit, NX8.5.1.3
The problem where "Cosmetic Thread information is missing in drawing/model" has been investigated and the following has been found.
This 1953707 reports that "cosmetic thread" information is missing from the drawing following migration from Catia to NX. The technical reason that the 6 cosmetic threads are suppressed in the SourceCAD Catia part. If the user un-suppresses these cosmetic threads on the Catia part, and then migrates this part/drawing to NX, the result will show the cosmetic threads as requested.
Closing this IR as user error per the above explanation.
