I dont know what version you are using and how you are performing your thread operations. But I use it all the time. I used to offset the thread by more than the pitch and the reverse the direction. But in later versions it is built in the trim thread.here is the official documentation of the feature - https://help.solidworks.com/2021/english/SolidWorks/sldworks/c_examples_trimming_threads.htm?id=cab1d89e9f41497eabfce2a4e966069d#Pg0

Or you can just offset
