This hides the whole block bar, which is NOT what you're looking for:
ViewBuilder > Group Views > Select a View > Edit Content > Select a Block > Edit Block > Check 'Hide Block Toolbar'.
The onRefresh function invoked by clicking on the Refresh button is in Drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\ibi_html\javaassist\worp\js\worp_TableControl.js.
Adding the code marked in red will disable the Refresh button (but it will still be displayed - not exactly what you want):
function onRefresh(fn, fex) {
fn = null;
if(fn == null) {
return;
}
The images used in the Block toolbar are here:
Drive:\ibi\WebFOCUS76\ibi_html\javaassist\images\worp\
You can replace refreshicon.gif with a gif that is blank.
Unfortunately there does not appear to be a method to do this without digging under the covers. So, to do what you want, change the JavaScript function and the gif image. This will be applied to all blocks in all views.
Susannah, unless I've missed something, this sounds like a candidate for a New Feature Request.
