External thread question

[gwbruce]

OK guys I have a question. When I use the external thread icon, under the hole icon. Everything work just fine no problem. However there is something that bugs me. It leaves a cross hair on the end of the part.



Is there any way to get rid of this? It doesn't cause me trouble just bugs me.

Thanks,
Gary

Doesn't even disappear when shaded view (with no edges) is selected which could be annoying if doing a quick screen capture for presentation although does disappear in a drawing.
If there is no chamfer it leaves a circle and cross hair.

Custom shortcut keyboard using relegendable keys

I have been using a 2d cad software for 30+ years, it uses 2 letter keyboard shortcuts for everything which makes it incredibly fast to use. Inspired by ExMachina and Bolsover I decided to create a shortcut keyboard that would kind of emulate that. Thanks to Max for providing the icons...

I have literally just finished the final layout so will post update in next couple of days. New template below.

I think we're stuck with it. I couldn't find anything in the Help about it either. I thought it might be related to annotations but turning them off doesn't have any effect on the crosshair display.

It was not my intention but this subject "External thread question" should be in the "Using Alibre Design" and not in "General Discussion."
