Ext. cosmetic on both ends of a rod, doesn't appear in dwg

Maybe this has been discovered already, but I modeled a straight ø.25x14" rod and added a 1/4-20 external cosmetic thread to each end with chamfers, but only one end shows up when I generated the drawing. Both chamfers are there and each callout appears, but only one thread.

Any ideas, other than manually sketching in the missing thread?

Hi Mike,

I can give you a workaround :roll: for that problem.
You can create 2 bolts with external cosmetic threads and associate both in an assembly -> 2D Drawing.

But for the next problem "thread undercut", unfortunately, I have no solution or workaround...
