i used to do this in earlier versions, but for MX i can't find the files to
hide. i want to removing some of the Color Swatch Libraries, but where are they
hiding? FH10 had them in the Enlish folder in with the app. e.g.
"PantoneSolidMatte.bcf"

In Windows they are in [C]:\Documents and Settings\[User]\Application Data\Macromedia\FreeHand MX\11\English\Settings\Colors

[C] and [User] meaning thatthese may be differnt in your computer. Note that 'Application Data' is a hidden folder. Doah!

In Mac there probabbly is similar myriad of folders.

If you are using Mac OS X, find the FHMX application. Control-click on the
application icon and select 'Open Package Contents'. Then navigate to

Contents/Resources/English.lproj/First Run/Settings/Color

Note that these are the default libraries that are installed when FH is
first installed.

Your custom libraries and any others such as 'PANTONE color bridge'
libraries are in:

Users/(Username)/Library/Application Support/ Macromedia/ FreeHand MX/ 11/
English/ Settings/Color

of course i forgot to mention i'm on a Mac. and i didn't find any invisible
files.

someone will find that info useful, no doubt.

any Mac users know this one?
