How to save/delete Symbols in Wildfire 5.0

How to save/delete Symbols in Wildfire 5.0

How to save/delete Symbols in Wildfire 5.0

(OP)
I do not have a problem creating a symbol in Wildfire. i.e in a opened drawing, you select annotate, then click on the yellow folder symbol and it brings up the "custom Drawing Symbol" pop up. I can list my symbols there, I can create a new symbol, which then opens up a drawing and you can sketch, etc..   But I can't seem to find out how to SAVE the symbol to a directory so that it can be used in other drawings or I can't see how to to delete a symbol from a the drawing list in the "custom drawing symbol" pop up.

I have seen alot of steps to do these things before Wildfire, but I can't see how to do it in Wildfire.  Any ideas?
thanks
Regards

I found it. It took me over an hour.  In a drawing, under the annotate tab, in the section called Format, pull down the arrow in the lower corner and you will find the "symbol gallery".  When you click on that, you can delete and save or "write" your symbols.
thanks
Regards
