Cannot Save Custom Filters in Parameters

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 7.0 (connected) Release 7.0 and Datecode7.0.5.0

When you create a custom filter in the Parameters of a model (using the "Filter Parameters" dialog), I can find no way to save the custom filters. Apparently, the custom filters are not saved when the model is saved, because when I close and then open the model later, all the custom filters in the Parameters are gone. The "Filter Parameters" dialog has no "Save" button. I have searched the PTC knowledge base as well as Google, and I can find no instructions on how to save custom filters in Parameters.

Here are the errors that I faced
There are no error messages associated with this inquiry. I just want to save my custom filters in Parameters! If Creo is incapable of saving custom filters in Parameters, then this is something that definitely needs added to Creo.

Hi,

use File > Save Configuration As to save rp_config.xml file. Then add line into config.pro - see following example. At the end restart Creo.

parameter_dialog_setup_file E:\users\creo4_parametric\rp_config.xml

Create your custom filter.  From the Parameters window select File/Save Configuration As... and select a location.  Set Configuration parameter_dialog_setup_file to that file (rp_config.xml) by browsing to it in the configuration editor.
