HI,

When using ImageVault we'd like to hide the default "Media" option from the Assets panel:

Media tab

Is this possible?

There is a gadget that shows only Blocks (atleast in newer versions). Maybe it's sufficient to change to that one?

If you add a new gadget, there should be one called "Blocks". Not sure in which version it was added though. You are correct that you can't remove the Assets one though.. :(

Actually it is totally possible to modify the available components but only for users that have not modified their views, e.g. they have not added any components to their view. You can reset your view in the my settings page under the display options tab. The following code will remove the component, add this to the episerver.shell element in the web.config:

<viewManager>
  <views>
    <add name="/episerver/cms/home">
      <settings>
        <add name="RemoveMediaComponent" 
             transformationType="Remove"
             definitionName="EPiServer.Cms.Shell.UI.Components.MediaComponent"
             plugInArea="/episerver/cms/assets/defaultgroup" />
      </settings>
    </add>
  </views>
</viewManager>
