Hello, I'm using parametric creo 2.0. I want to make a thread hole in my part. I need to make an M36 x 1 thread, but I can't standard creo because it's a m36 x 4 choice.

is it possible to add a new thread hole to the drop-down list?

You can modify the .hol files to include a M36x1 option. Information is below:

    If you don't have access to edit the hole files, you can create a simple hole and then add a cosmetic thread. You can then create a manual note on your drawing with a leader note. This method is a little crude but works.
