Hi @mgrenier2. This is just an educated guess, but I would say that, although this is a Read/Write Property, we would most likely only be able to 'effectively' change its value from True to False, not from False to True. Adaptive status is usually 'set' to True automatically, when we 'edit' an assembly component, while we have its parent assembly open, then create a feature that effects the model being referenced by that component while in that 'edit mode' that is 'dependent' on something at the assembly level. So afterwards there will be a new feature present in the referenced model file, that was created at the parent assembly level, and some aspects of its definition are 'dependent' on one or more things within the parent assembly, causing that feature to be set to 'Adaptive'. While it remains adaptive, it will update when those things in the parent assembly change. When its adaptive status is turned off, it will no longer update when those things in the assembly change. Since this is a ThreadFeataure (just threads applied to an already existing cylindrical face), then the radius/diameter or length of the cylindrical face may be controlled by something in the assembly, and when they change, the ThreadFeature may attempt to reconfigure its specifications to new specifications that will fit the new size. Just my thoughts.
