Minor Diameter mixed up with pitch diameter #67

Description

After printing an M10x1 thread with ThreadProfile Workbench, I couldn't use it because it was too narrow. I had to recut the thread with a tap because the thread was too narrow. So I compared this thread with a nut from the FastenerWorkbench

Fastener Fastener1

Red is the nut from the FastenerWorkbench. When comparing these two threads and using the online calculator, I found that the minor diameter is equal to the pitch diameter. If I use the pitch diameter of the online calculator as input for minor diameter, the thread had the correct dimension.
