Help | About menu frustration

Hey

I am trying to hide the Help | About default menu from my instance of Splunk. I believe that this may be possible via application.css but I could be wrong.

alt text

The following image above just shows the navigation menu on my splunk instance. I have used application.css to highlight in orange the part of the menu that has the views I have created. Is it possible to highlight just the Help | About menu side? If so, then I believe that I could use CSS to stop the Help | About menu from being displayed.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Should be able to use a CSS class:

.auxLinks {
  display: none;
}

to hide them.

Update:

Better probably to use:

.AppBar .auxLinks {
  display: none;
}

I reverse engineered it using the browser developer tools. Chrome and Safari have them built in, Firefox and IE have toolbars to download. It's in a file share/modules/nav/AppBar.css

Wahey! Thanks again gkanapathy. It works 🙂 I couldn't find auxLinks in the default.css file. Where can I find it and what does it do (if anything else other than controlling this menu)?
