Disable "show as table" option or right context menu from custom visual

PelaezLink — Thu, 09 Mar 2023 14:56:29 GMT

Hello everyone.

I am basically modifying the existing source code of the TextFilter custom visual to suit my needs. The thing is that when I publish the report I don't want users to be able to right click on use "show as table" to see the underlying data. Given that this is a custom visual is it posible from the source code to diable this option or to disable the right context menu completely? For example when you right click on a button object it does not show any options.

Thanks a lot.

What would be the business value of doing that? As a developer you are supposed to make it easier for users, not harder.

The only safe way is to not include that data in the first place.
