Adding Threads to Holes, Cylinders, Revolved Solids, Etc.

In previous versions of MicroStation (as it appears in the help files), there was once an option to "Add Threads" to a feature hole. This option seems to have been removed or depreciated in the CONNECT version.

My suggestion is to add this option back in, complete with variable inputs (thread pitch, full length threading vs. specific distance, etc.), and (if it wasn't an option before) to add the same to cylinders, custom revolved solids/pins, , etc.

Thanks!

    This function will not necessarily aim to draw the thread exactly. The final goal will be to have it represented according to the standards on the drawings. Exemples : https://www.cours-et-exercices.com/2016/03/cours-filetages-et-taraudages.html

    It is incomprehensible that such a function is not yet integrated into Microstation. It is a basic function for anyone who draws mechanical parts. Indeed, all threaded parts drawn in 3D must be manually reworked on the layout. This takes time...

    Yes, Bentley has a strange way of upgrading their products by removing features.

    yes, I really miss not being able to do this. It is very time-consuming to approximate this manually and would save a LOT of time.
