Hiding widgets

You can hide a custom or application-provided widget either separately or when you are adding widgets.

1. Log in to Sterling Store Engagement. The Home page opens.
2. From the application header, click the Development Tools icon , and select Customize from the list.

   Alternatively, you can select Customize from Outline. The Select screen to Extend window opens. The list of screens present in the current screen is displayed. For example, if you open the Order Search screen, the tree displays Order Search, Order List Screen, and others present in this screen.

   From the tree, select the screen that you want to customize, and click Extend Screen.

   Note:

   • If you cannot customize the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.
   • You cannot use the customize option to customize screens that contain iframes, such as the Print PDF Container screen.
   • If multiple instances of the same screen are found, by default, the first instance of the screen is selected for customization.
3. Select the screen in which you want to hide a widget.
   Note:

   • After you select a particular screen to hide extensions, all the other screens, if available are disabled.
   • If you cannot hide extensions for the selected screen, an appropriate message is displayed.
4. Click the Layout tab, if necessary.

   By default, the Layout tab is selected.

5. In the Screen Outline panel, which provides the hierarchical representation of the screen, select the widget that you want to hide.
6. Select the Hide check box.
7. Click Apply to view your changes.
   Note: If you hide any widget, and later run a programmatic logic to show it, the hidden widget is displayed on the screen. If you do not want to display any application-provided widget on running the programmatic logic, delete the widget. You can later retrieve them from the Removed Widgets tab.
8. Click Save to save all your extensions.
   Note: It is recommended that you refresh or reload the application after you save your extensions.
