Add an image to ug palatte file (pax)

[KavyaRao]

Hi,

Could any one help me knowing adding images in pax file is feasible?
Meaning - When i click on File->New->Drawing tab it should show me the image i have added in pax file.
Note- It is not the preview image i am talking about.

Regards,

Looking at the .pax files that ship with NX is a great place to start. The entry below comes from the "ugs_drawing_templates_sample.pax" file (NX 9). Note the highlighted line; it will display the "drawing_template.jpg" file in the new drawing dialog box. NX will look for this jpg file in the same folder that the .pax file was loaded from; the .jpg file can be stored elsewhere as long as you provide the full path. This preview image only shows up on the file new dialog, it is separate from the NX part file preview image.
