OBIEE Remove PDF print option for one dashboard only

Or how to get from:

image

to

image 

add this to a textbox on the dashboard:

[code]

<script type="text/javascript">
    function RemovePDFOption() {

        var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('span');
        for (var td = 0; td < tds.length; td++) {

            if (tds[td].className != 'DashboardFormatLinks') {
                continue;
            }

            //alert(tds[td].innerHTML);
            var tHTML = tds[td].innerHTML;
            tHTML = tHTML.replace("PDF</a>","</a>");
            //alert(tHTML);
            tds[td].innerHTML = tHTML;

        }
    }
    window.onload = RemovePDFOption;
</script>

[/code]

Yeah i know this is very crude (the link is still somewhat hidden there), but if you play around with javascript .replace and indexof you can clean it up even more.

    @John

    Thanks so much for your help. I did have to change:
    tHTML = tHTML.replace("PDF</a>","</a>");

    to

    tHTML = tHTML.replace("PDF","");

    but it works! Thanks again!

    .....
    How can we show this design in main menu page

    i.e if user click on dashboard it should display dashboard pages as sub menu items on right side..

    Hi John,

    I had some trouble accessing my reports build using flex. They are running fine when I view them using flash template but when I try to export them to the PDF my data is getting truncated. Please let me know if I need to change any template settings.

    Thanks,
    Aravind P

    @Luz

    I was able to get this to work:

    <script type="text/javascript">
    function RemoveRefresh() {

    var tds = document.getElementsByTagName('span');
    for (var td = 0; td < tds.length; td ) {

    if (tds[td].className != 'DashboardFormatLinks' || tds[td].firstChild.title != 'Refresh') {
    continue;
    }

    //alert(tds[td].innerHTML);
    tds[td].innerHTML = "&nbsp";

    }
    }
    window.onload = RemoveRefresh;
    </script>

    I hope that helps,

    Andrew
