Issues with holls and threads

I don't know if this is related to the most recent update but I have encountered the following issues related to holes and threads

 

1) when using the hole function, you can select tapered threads and NPT as the thread type.  However you no longer have an option to model the threads when creating the hole.

 

2) when you use the insert Thread function, NPT threads are not offered as an option.

 

Am I missing something on how to create a modeled NPT thread?

Fusion has never had the ability to create a modelled thread in a tapered hole. There have been many posts about this over the years.

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.
