Yes, please add the ability to bring over thread specifications from the model into the drawing. Users should not have to manually add the specifications to the drawing.

Yes, threads that change with the model would be important. Typing everything in is bound to cause Errors, especially when the model changes.

This is a basic feature for 3D modeling software. This should not require a feature request.

Was also surprised that this wasn't there.  Consider this a feature request.

Especially for threads the dimensioning should follow from the drawing. I made a part with threads just now, and I couldn't find a way to add the dimension showing what kind of thread it was just directly by clicking on it in the drawing. That is simply not even optional, but a necessary part of a CAD program.

I vote yes, especially threaded holes defined in the model.

Also suprised that there isn´t the possibility to do it.

I just want to be able to write the "Designation" field of the Hole Edit feature as a quote of the hole in drawing

this is a BIG shortcoming but one at fusion 360 seems concerned.  Also i get no answer as to why the is not 4 axis machining.  it seems like the bells and whistles get a lot of resources in lieu of the foundational functions.  i would love to hear from fusion why this is the case:(

Also surprised to find this feature missing. It would be great to get an update on this as I have read this is being worked on.

 

Cheers
