How to remove the subtype option in manufacturing

[Bingos]

Hi

How to remove the unwanted option from UG manufacturing.

For example ; we are not using drill_text,break_chip,peck_drill in drill subtype option,
is there any solution to grey out or remove from the dialog box.

Thanks

The Sub Types are part of the default templates that come with NX.
Before trying to remove them first make a copy of the original files, because as soon as you remove the sub types someone will say they were using them.
In my system the template files are in
C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 4.0\MACH\resource\template_part\english
C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 4.0\MACH\resource\template_part\metric

Edit the drill.prt and right click on the operations you don’t want to see. Select object-template setting. There should be a checkmark on Template, un-check the Template setting. Save the part.

Next time you start NX only the operations that are set to Template will display as a Sub Type

If you want you can create your own templates and define your own types and subtypes.
Look under Help – Manufacturing – Manufacturing General – Customizing your Environment- Templates
