How do I remove "New Issue" and "New Task" in Dashboard?

Hi: Look at the attached screen shot. How do I remove the "New Issue" and "New Task" button from an element of a dashboard? Any ideas? Thanks, Eric

Hi Eric. I believe those New Task / New Issues buttons automatically appear whenever the person viewing the dashboard has rights to take those actions -- in other words, they are security driven. So, to remove them (e.g. if you are trying to give a read-only view of a dashboard for a wider audience), perhaps you could set the Run As credentials on each report to a (special) user account that has no such permissions (e.g. reject its rights to take such actions), and in so doing, suppress the logic that would otherwise present the buttons. Regards, Doug

{{Doug}} Hmmm, that makes sense. I hadn’t thought of running the report as someone without those privileges, but that is really a good idea. I’m going to give it a try. Thanks! Eric
