Hello,
Are there any settings in WebX that will allow me to turn off the Database Bar? On the page I shared the link below, it says that when Geo Scada is run, it is opened by default, but no information is given about whether there is an option to turn it off. What I need is this Database Bar to be closed. Can you help me?
Below, I share the ViewX and WebX tabs from the screen where some user settings are made. Are there any options that need to be changed on these screens for that matter?

Perhaps you mean Virtual ViewX, not WebX?
If so see:
Yes, you can hide the database tree on start of a VVX session.
To do this you need to customise and save the two DAT files which ViewX uses to set screen appearance, then copy the files from your own user folder to the VVX user folders.
The procedure is:
a) Run ViewX with a normal Windows user, log in and close the database tree
b) Log out (re-close the database tree if it reopens) and then Exit ViewX
c) Find the folder c:\Users\<your Windows user>\AppData\Local\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA
d) Copy the two DAT files from this folder. (It may be easier to copy the \Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA folder and its files)
e) Paste these files into the equivalent folders for all VVX Windows accounts.
It used to be just the folder: VirtualUI but now (since Dec 2022 builds) its all accounts similar to GeoSCADAVirtualUI, GeoSCADAVirtualUI2, GeoSCADAVirtualUI3 etc up to the max # of licenses.
Note that some settings which are saved between ViewX runs are modified on VVX start, such as hiding the alarm banner and ribbon.
Note also that in Geo SCADA 2023 the folder for these files is moving to c:\Users\<your Windows user>\AppData\Roaming\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA and you'll need to repeat this procedure. (The folder should always have been Roaming but it was incorrectly chosen 20 years ago!)
