Hi all,

     I'm quite new to Solidworks so please forgive my ignorance.

Most of you have probably played with the new Thread feature in 2016/2017. My question is, is there a feature or option to run the thread out rather than have it finish at a sharp 90° as shown in the below photo?

For example, if this bolt was being machined in a CNC lathe, the CNC controller will know to slowly "ramp" or "runout" the threading tool so it doesn't come to a sudden stop like pictured.

Can this "feature" be illustrated in my Solidworks model? Thank you!
