Hello,

I've just been having a look at save favorite in new NX9 dialogs.

Looks quite useful being able to create your own favorite versions of a dialog however, now that I've created some I can't see how I can get rid of them? Changing role doesn't help, they're still there.

Does anyone know how to get rid of these user created favorite dialogs?

Hi carlharr,

In 8.5 User created Favorites are stored in the NX user profile which is usually in C:\Users\<user_id>\AppData\Local\Unigraphics Solutions\NX85 in a directory called "Favorites". You can deleted any User favourites from this directory. I haven't tried it on NX9 yet, but imagine its the same.
 
Hi plmtech, thank you for the information.

Following your guide I've found them in C:\Users\<user_id>\AppData\Local\Siemens\NX90\Favorites

So these seem like a good idea, but a bit "flaky". Created a Simple Extrude, but then the name of Extrude wouldn't change when I went back to the normal version.

Also it was called Simple Extrude even after I deleted the .fav file.

In the end, also had to delete the memory file.

That said, these could be useful in future if they're a bit more robust, and a lot easier to get rid of.
