Hi Jouni

I did not research the key for Forms but this post should point you in the right direction:

Not an answer, but I do agree that this UI is a bit messy. 

Hey, 

This web.config change removes it:

<episerver.shell>
    <viewManager>
      <views>
        <add name="/episerver/cms/home">
          <settings>
            <add name="RemoveFormComponent" transformationType="Remove" definitionName="EPiServer.Forms.Components.FormsComponent" plugInArea="/episerver/cms/assets/defaultgroup" />
          </settings>
        </add>
      </views>
    </viewManager>
  </episerver.shell>

I agree it's a bit annoying :D

Thanks Marija!

What Forms versions does that configuration support? I quickly tested with Forms 4.6.1, but with no luck. What version do you use?

Hey Jouni,

Trying going to My settings -> Display options -> Reset views. Does it work when you do that?

BR,

Marija

Hi Marija,

I found that in this version the namespace is EPiServer.Forms.EditView.Components.FormsComponent. After changing it (and resetting the views) the Forms-tab is gone :)

    <viewManager>
      <views>
        <add name="/episerver/cms/home">
          <settings>
            <add name="RemoveFormComponent" transformationType="Remove" definitionName="EPiServer.Forms.EditView.Components.FormsComponent" plugInArea="/episerver/cms/assets/defaultgroup" />
          </settings>
        </add>
      </views>
    </viewManager>
