OBIEE: Hide the message "Preparing Guided Navigation" in OBIEE

You might have come across with this kind of message when you use guided navigation logic.

There is a way to hide this message and the background yellow colored strip.

Edit the two CSS files.

C:\OracleBI\web\app\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4\portalcontent.css
AND
C:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4\portalcontent.css

Look for this class marked with Black border

Edit as shown below in the CSS file at both the locations:

.PortalPreparingGuided
{
}

This will remove the yellow colored strip.

Now we have to remove the actual message "Preparing Guided Navigation"

For that purpose go to C:\OracleBI\web\msgdb\l_en\messages\portalsysmessages.xml

and look out for this tag -

Remove this message.

<WebMessage name="kmsgDashboardPrepareGuided"><HTML></HTML></WebMessage>

Now restart the OBI services. You will find that the message "Preparing Guided Navigation" with the yellow strip in the background has been disappeared.

Happy Learning !!!
