Remove Export to Excel from Drop down List in CA PPM v15.6.1

[Divyanshu Dhyani]

Hi,

Our requirement is to remove Export to Excel Icon & drop-down list from the application.

I was able to remove icon by adding below text in clarity.min.css file:

#export_to_xls

{visibility:hidden;}

But not able to hide export to excel option from drop-down list after trying multiple options.

I also went through some of below mentioned threads as well but of no help.

Remove Export to Excel & Power Point      &    Remove Export to Excel and Power Point Icons

If anyone has successfully removed export to excel option from drop-down list then please help me to get this done.

Thanks,
Divyanshu Dhyani

Hi Divyanshu

Try looking at file Clarity_home\META-INF\union\vxsl\foundation.xml.

Note: These all are unsupported change and can cause your upgrade to break.

Did you try the CSS selector approach edited into the UI theme that was suggested at the end of the second thread you linked?

E.g. it suggested:
 

a[href*='prodpack.dashboardExport&format=pptx'] { display: none; }

a[href*='prodpack.dashboardExport&format=xlsx'] { display: none; }

For the menus "Export to Powerpoint" and "Export to Excel" respectively.

If they don't work, your browser vendor/version may not support such selectors, or you may be trying to suppress another menu whose URL (if you were to inspect it when hovering over the menu) contains a different URL "pattern" to detect.
