Good Morning Everybody,

     I am having issues with cosmetic threads. Essentially what is happening is I have a manifold with two #8 o-ring boss ports that I have inserted into the part. As you may know, a #8 o-ring boss port has a straight thread of 3/4-16 and I am wanting to insert cosmetic threads on on both sides so that I can call them out on my drawing. But the issue I am having is that when i select the edge for the threads and the face from which I want the threads to start, it gives me an error message stating "Cannot select a face/plane which is created after this feature." To me this seems impossible since I am adding the Cosmetic Thread after I have completed the o-ring boss port. Why would it tell me I can not select this face. Please let me know as soon as possible. Thank you.
