Problems with custom thread creation.

Its not the first time i create a custom thread, i did it twice one year ago but today i went to find the threads and my custom folder wasn´t there, maybe because a while ago i updated fusion, today following the exact same tutorial i couldn´t get to create the custom folder and get it to work, but what´s more, there were 15 thread profiles in the folder and in the drop down menu, after trying the first time to create my custom profile in the drop down menu there were only 3 profiles, now there are more after restarting the pc, after thinkering a lot i just tried to copy the isometric profile and rename it from ISOMetricprofile to iISOMetricprofileCustom and even that didn´t show up in the menu.

 

This is the tutorial.

Are you sure you're looking in the right folder? I know that often (if not every time) Fusion is updated it creates a whole new set of folders. Your original custom thread files should still be there in the original folder. All you should need to do is move these to the one that the current version of Fusion is using.

If this answers your question please mark the thread as solved as it can help others find solutions in the future.

I've created a Windows application (and now Mac as well) for creating custom thread files for Fusion. You can find out about it here. Hope you find it useful.
If you need to know how to offset threads for 3D printing then I've created a guide here which you might find useful.
If you would like to send me a tip for any help I've provided or for any of my software applications you've found useful, you can do this via my Ko-Fi page here.
