Drawing Symbols - How do I remove them from the drop-down list?

I created several Drawing Templates and brought in several symbols. However, I brought one symbol in twice. Now when you click on the drop-down menu to select the Custom Drawing Symbol, you see "Flag_Hex" and "Flag_Hex (2)". Is there a way to remove the second symbol?

I tried deleting all of the symbols from the template and saving, but to no avail.

This might be a little nitpicky, but because it's in my template, every drawing will now see this symbol listed twice. Any help would be appreciated!

Hi,

If I understood you clearly, you have two sym files inside the template folder, one with postfix (2) and one without?
If yes, he should be deleted when you make exit pro-e and make new entry (in session issue).

Do you use PRO-e path for template and config.pro, or you make your own config and template?
 
Pre Creo:

Format/Symbol gallery/delete
 
This is likely a session issue. Once you close Creo and re-open, I think it may be gone. If not, then you need to delete from disk.
 
Thanks gallup! I couldn't find Format, but I went into Options and added Symbol Gallery to my quick access toolbar and that did the trick!

KK, thanks for the attempt, but I'm good now!
