We're trying to save some space on our dashboard so we want to get rid of the banner. When we uncheck the checkbox that says "check to use banner" it eliminates our links (logoff, tree, tools, recent, favorites, group views, utilities, help) as well from the top right corner....and we want to keep those.

Any way to keep the links, but eliminate the banner section?

Links are added to the banner via the Dashboard GUI. Unless you want to create an HTML page that contains manually coded links, you need the banner. In your template, minimize the code in banner.html to a one-row table and leave the Links tag in place. Then change the banner height in profile.prf to a suitable number, 15 for example.

banner.html may look like this:

<!--$Revision:   1.1  $:-->
<!-- worp6/banner.html -->
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>WebFOCUS Open Reporting Portal</TITLE>
<LINK REL=STYLESHEET TYPE='text/css' HREF='banner.css'>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript" SRC="worp_banner.js" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT></HEAD>
<BODY LEFTMARGIN="0" TOPMARGIN="0" MARGINWIDTH="0" MARGINHEIGHT="0" onUnload="javascript:closeAllWindows()">

<TABLE  WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0">
  <TR>
    <TD HEIGHT="15" CLASS="bg2" ALIGN="RIGHT" VALIGN="MIDDLE" COLSPAN="2">
      <SPAN CLASS="text">
<!--Links--></SPAN><IMG SRC="clear_space.gif" WIDTH="10" HEIGHT="1" BORDER="0" ALT=""></TD>
  </TR>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Thank You! that works very well!

I'm a little confused about one thing though, it my banner.html has been reduced to a one row table, but webfocus is rendering a bunch of white space below that where the banner used to be.

Is there any way to reclaim the space rather than just showing white?

Did you change profile.prf to reflect the new banner height?

here's my profile.prf.
I've changed the bannerheight from 5 to 20 to 100...no change in how it is displayed.


; worp_html\worp0
; $Revision: 1.1 $:

;Size of the cell for Company Logo in banner.html
cellWidth = 0
cellHeight = 0

;default folder for design
originFolder = worp_html\worp0

;banner height
bannerHeight = 5

As far as I can recall, after making the change in profile.prf, you have to login to the ViewBuilder, select the view, "Edit Look" and then "Save".
