RE: Visualization template
If so, yes.
The Visualization templates are text only, that reside inside the pax file. The simple way to see which/ what is to use the visualization template then read the logfile. On my computer the line :
<<<C:\Documents and Settings\tomas\Local Settings\Application Data\Unigraphics Solutions\NX6\nxpalette4.pax#id0<<<
Which means that the palette (pax) is the "nxpalette4.pax" and the entry inside the file is "id0" ( then that entry is a few pages long) It starts <PaletteEntry id="id0">..... and ends <PaletteEntry>
You can probably copy the line from pax file to pax file, or copy the entire paxfile to a different directory.
RE: Visualization template
thank you, now it's all more clear about template visualization.
Major release that I'm testing has color that I like, so I would use this template visualization to set minor release visualization.
Problems ?
Maybe I can try and then answer here.
Thank you...

RE: Visualization template
sorry, I wrote wrong.
The correct answer is :
'It's not possible use template visualization from a major release to minor, an error occur.'
Anyway I created a NX8 visualization template for using in NX7.
I thought that a simple text doesn't have problem set some variables.
If variables are not present, go head to set which variables are present in NX7.
Thank you...

RE: Visualization template
While it is true that most all of the same restrictions on downward-compatiblity still apply (you generally cannot use a Visualization Template created in a newer version of NX in a session running an older version of NX), the actual mechanism for capturing and delivering the visualization settings is not a "simple Part file" nor does it use the "Part Import" approach to updating the changes. Rather, it's done using XML files, but the issue of downward-compatiblity is still a limitation, so the 'message' in my post has not really changed.

RE: Visualization template
thank you for the clarification.
I will use the NX8 xml template deleting the string that create the problem using a tool that make comparison as WinMerge.
