Dashboards & Visualizations

Is it possible to disable a view so that it doesn't show up in the navigation menu?

There are numerous actions available for my view including open, clone, move and delete. Why not disable?

I'll try disabling it in the configuration file but that is not ideal.

You have to put isVisible="False" into the root tag, ie <view>, <dashboard>, <form>. It would be nice if there was a hook from EAI that translated enable/disable into flips of that attribute in the EAI:data XML but I'm afraid there is not. The view XML system was developed concurrently with a lot of the features in the general config layering system so there's some unfortunate places where it doesn't really fit the general model.
