Do you want to merge the two parts? In Assembly mode pick Edit/Component Operations\Merge. (You have to have the reference controls set properly first) Otherwise, there should be a line between mating parts. You can manually erase edges you don't want to display in drawing mode with View/Drawing Display/Edge Display Erase Line.

That is my pet peeve with screws and screw holes in assembly/drawing mode, we use cosmetic threads to display threads but the lines always interfere and blank or show up. I wish there was a config.pro setting to turn this off
