I also found context help (the right bar) on idempiere webui main page is not really helpful. can we use the sysconfig to remove it?

No, I think a better idea would be to redact a good text for the “Getting Started” context help, something like explaining the common things on the Home page (maybe we can try to redact this text within the marketing or documentation meeting).

The text can explain (or provide links to where this is explained) how to use:

  • Activities dashboard

  • Favourites

  • Recent Items

  • Views

  • Running Jobs

  • About button

  • Menu/Search box

  • Menu button

  • Feedback, Preference, Change Role, Logout

 

NOTE ASIDE: I remember there was another idea to create AD_CtxHelp records for every window/process/form/etc on the dictionary and assign it - without the message, this is to avoid that every implementor needs to create those records and potentially collide in future because of IDs, it would be needed just to create messages on implementations.

Also, it is important to note that you can change a lot of things (hide left bar, right bar, etc) using your own custom theme. AFAIK, most implementer uses their own theme in production.

hi , we use the right bar not just for context help but for quick info as well, so no, that needs to be keep as part of core.
