CMM Creo - Threads in parts duplicated
CMM Creo - Threads in parts duplicated Symptom / Problem DescriptionIn CMM Options there is the setting to migrate "Threads in BrepMode" that leads to correctly migrated Symbolic Thread features. Unfortunately the former migration mode to create geometric cylinder bodies for threads is still there. Even if this bodies are hidden, the provided duplicate thread geometry is not wanted and should be removed when using the "Threads in BrepMode"
Remark:
We always use Feature Translation Mode = BrepMode, however, in "FeatureMode" we get the same result.
For Assemblies Translation Mode we plan to use Feature Mode, however for CMM validation sometimes also Brep Mode is tested
Environment setup:
Environment Setup 1:
CMM Solo 12.0.2.093

ExpectationsWe would like to receive the following dependent of the CMM Option settings:
CMM Option "Threads in BrepMode" = TRUE --> Symbolic Thread, no additional geometry body
CMM Option "Threads in BrepMode" = FALSE --> thread geometry body
