Preferences Annotation NX9

[phillpd]

In NX6, there are two options :

Load Defaults, which loads the customer defaults to the open tab and Load All Defaults, which loads the customer defaults to all tabs.

Does this behaviour exist in NX9, as I'm only seeing the one option ?

NX 6.0.5.3
NX 9.0.1.3
Windows 7 64 (Windows 8.1 Tablet)

I suspect what has happened is that with the new style 'Drafting Preference' dialog (which BTW, the rest of the NX 'Preferences' will migrate to this same 'style' over the next few releases), that this concept of a 'tab' is no longer relevant and therefore having an option limited to only updating the settings of a single tab has also lost it's relevancy. Therefore we now provide for only the more general and all inclusive option to update ALL the relevant Preferences from what was set in Customer Defaults. Besides, I've heard of people who were confused by the fact that if they didn't select the correct 'Update' option that only SOME of their preferences were updated.
