Does anyone know how to hide tabs (GM+View, Notes, etc.) in GM 8 using the GM.ini file? I have heard I can do this with each individual user's ini file but that would be pretty impractical being that we have so many users. I want to hide tabs for everyone. Anyone know how to do this? I have tried the following in my GM.ini file:

[User-OverRide:GoldMine]
ROTabItems1=1;2;3;4;5;
ROTabs1=Relationships;Links;Notes;History;Pending;

And this hides some tabs but leaves most of them blank with no text. Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
The ROTabItems identifies which tabs you want to display and the order of the tabs. The ROTabs is used for renaming the tabs.

Your best bet would be to customize your own view how you want the users to appear, then go to your user.ini file and copy the ROTabItems and ROTabs to your GM.ini user override.

Before you make the changes to your view, comment out the lines in your GM.ini and log in fresh so you start off with everything. To comment out the lines, just put a semicolon at the beginning of each line.
