I would like to have thread direction support in content center as it happens in iPart tables. This would allow to author families where also left-hand thread members are present. [WHY IS THIS NEEDED] Not many CAD Admins use author Inventor Content Center families, but as soon as you will start doing it, your guys will begin asking you any possible member variation within this wonderful tool, and their productivity will increase dramatically. Because of a limitation in the Content Center module documented in this AKN article, currently it is NOT possible to control the thread direction from the family table in the Content Center. This means that the thread direction of the family template will remain unchanged, whatever you try to do. [RELATED ISSUES] The thread direction implementation and documentation is currently not really optimal as it is documented also in this other related idea, which is already around 70 votes: separate LH thread information from thread class - ISO 15786 compliance Maybe it is time for Autodesk to react to this need and address this limitation. [CURRENT (NOT REALLY ACCEPTABLE) WORKAROUND] It is very frustrating having to author a custom family with left-hand thread for handling this limitation, as most of such families will probably contain as much as 5 or 10 members. This could be perfectly handled from the primary family, if the thread direction could be controlled from the family table. If you need this feature, please cast votes to this idea and also to the other related one. Thank you!!
