Description: Hi, The banner which proposes to see a new version's release notes (see https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69042) is really a good feature. However I could not find a way to disable it. My use case is a school without roaming profiles: users will have the same banner each time they go on another computer, so it will be more annoying than helpful. Regards, Yvan Steps to Reproduce: Open LibreOffice preferences. Actual Results: A setting should allow to disable the banner that proposes to show the releases notes. Expected Results: This setting does not appear. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info:
You can set the value of officecfg::Setup::Product::ooSetupLastVersion to an arbitrary high number and/or make it readonly. Does this solve the issue for you?
Thanks for the suggestion. It look likes it would solve my issue, but I could not test it yet. Also, I hope setting this value to a very high number has no side effect (maybe it is used for other purpose in LibreOffice?). I will try and let you know. Regards, Yvan

(In reply to yvan from comment #2) > ...setting this value to a very high number has no side effect No, it was introduced for just this toolbar. However, why not do the readonly tweak, which was implemented exactly for your request.
I could finally test this setting. As you expected, it works just by setting the value read only. I suppose I am not the only one not at ease with .xcd files, so here is mine: <?xml version="1.0"?> <oor:data xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:oor="http://openoffice.org/2001/registry"> <dependency file="main"/> <oor:component-data oor:package="org.openoffice" oor:name="Setup"> <node oor:name="Product"> <prop oor:name="ooSetupLastVersion" oor:type="xs:string" oor:finalized="true"/> </node> </oor:component-data> </oor:data> Thanks, Yvan
