How do you change the directory that list your drawing templates?
I do not have permission to save to the default location.
Solved! Go to Solution.
pro_format_dir set in config.pro set to your local folder that has the templates in it.
pro_format_dir c:\ptc_user\user1\formats

Thank you for the response. I did try that, but it seems to keep pointing to
the location shown in the original screen capture.
I did however get my permissions changed so that I can save to that location.
The system will still point to the system template folder for drawings. Maybe this needs to be an enhancement request.☺
If you select Brose, it will open your defined folder for the templates.
I would NOT recommend modifying or saving the drawing templates back to the system folder as they get overwritten/deleted when you upgrade!
We don't have this issue. We have pointed this template folder to library in Windchill and is working good.
Hi,
set config.pro option start_model_dir

Thank you. That seems to have resolved my problem.
The description of the option is a little confusing though.
Not sure what other things it affects but it does point my template list to the desired location.
Thanks again !
