It's depending on your local setup.
it can be super simple or pretty complex and "impossible"...
Also depending on if you work with or without Teamcenter.
the short description is :
When NX starts, it will read a number of xml-files with the file name extension .pax.
The .pax files will state which files to be presented in the file new dialog.
Each tab has a .pax of it's own.
To make this complex, the pax files can be located in Teamcenter and access controlled.
the pax files can be located on a remote server and access controlled. ( Both options are possible in a teamcenter environment)
If simple the pax files are located on local disk in the install directory ( or other local directory)
If simple, in NX: go "Menu- help -log file" and search for ".pax"
You should ( if the .paxfiles are in windows) see some line like this :
Processing C:\program files\Siemens\NX11\UGII\templates\ugs_model_templates.pax
Pax files beginning with "nxdm_" are for usage under Teamcenter, pax files "ugs_" are non-teamcenter mode.
Note : If you double click a pax file , you will start NX . Take a copy of the paxfile ->.txt before you edit since it is sensitive on the formatting, this is the backup file.
ALL .pax files will be read by NX upon startup. ( and show these as tabs in the file new.)
Edit the file using notepad or Notepad++, DO NOT use Microsoft Word! (MS/Word will fill the file with "formatting" )
without knowing your environment, it's difficult to dive deeper.
