<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Quick update on my previous email. I’ve just found the --hide-browser option which deals with my specific example but perhaps is not very encouraging as needing a specific start-up option for it seems to imply it may not be possible to
control the position of toolbars and things like that using any of the start-up options.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m trying to update our deployment of QGIS to use a more standard method of deployment and customisation and I was looking at the page in the manual. I noted the following options --customizationfile and --globalsettingsfile.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The customisation file ini turns off certain buttons from toolbars and panels and the global settings file configures things in the settings which is great; but, how do you specify which toolbars to display and where they are located?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At the moment the deployment loads but the toolbars are just loaded as default. In some cases I wanted them to be in the menu but not on the toolbar and I want to control which toolbars appear on which line of buttons. In the past I’ve
done this by pushing out two profiles and just configured it in the qgis.ini file folder directly but this is not a good method really as there are lots of user specific settings in those files and it means I’ve had to create a script to do all that post install
because I have to work in the users actual profile. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a way to control the windows / panels and toolbars using either of the two ini files referenced?
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To give a specific example; as default I tend to hide the ‘Browser’ window as our users are meant to use an internal data discovery tool and I like a bigger layers panel. I put:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">[browser]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">expandedPaths=favorites:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">propertiesWidgetEnabled=false<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">propertiesWidgetHeight=@Variant(\0\0\0\x87\0\0\0\0)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Into the customisation file ini but that didn’t work?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
