Helpcase "help" buttons on toolbar. Can you choose location?

Hi All,

I have found that the “help” button to access Helpcase files is currently located on the top and bottom toolbars of the grid/form etc.

Is there a way to limit the placement to the top OR the bottom, but not both?

The help button does not appear in the Layout options of the toolbar to add/remove it like other buttons.

Thanks

Tony

You can use Jquery to remove as i see this is the only way, by default they are in the top and bottom.

find the id of the element and create a javascript method use this in there $(’#id-of-the-help’).remove(); or $(’#id-of-the-help’).hide(); then load the javascript method in onappini like this sc_ajax_javascript(‘method-name’);

Thanks Scottypaul,

Following your advise, I found that I could only apply your code to a form and not a grid. Then I found that the form allows for the “Webhelp” button to be applied top or bottom, so no need for your code anyway. Then I checked the grid again, and a “I must be blind” event took place. I CAN add the button top or bottom, but if I do NOT place a button on the toolbars, it defaults to displaying both top and bottom.

So, thanks for your efforts, if you had not replied I would probably still be none the wiser.
