[ Hole Feature enhancement ]: Display thread token in the model

Post by Piero69 »

in hole feature i feel useful to add the option to display the thread token in the model so i can visually distinguish the simple holes from threaded ones (see attachment).

an option that can be enabled from user like the real thread

what do you think?

I think this has been discussed before. Did you check if there is already a feature request?
The Thread for Screw Tutorial shows different possibilities for fake but more efficient threads. It could be sensible to select from different options, which can be configured in the preferences.
