Configuring Navigator tiles#
Anaconda Navigator contains some configuration options that allow you to customize the visibility of application tiles available on the Navigator Home tab.
Configuration files#
Depending on your operating system, the configuration file can be created or edited at the following locations:
Windows:
%APPDATA%\.anaconda\navigator\applications\
macOS and Linux:
~/.anaconda/navigator/applications/
Each configuration file must be in a .yaml` format, but your files can be named anything (within the character limits for files in your operating system).
There are a few default applications that are registered in Navigator:
PyCharm Community -
pycharm_ce
PyCharm Professional -
pycharm_pro
VS Code -
vscode
Datalore -
datalore
IBM watsonx -
ibm_watson
Use these identifier keys to hide the above default applications within Navigator.
Hiding existing tiles#
Navigator contains some default applications that can be hidden by a config file. To hide one of these applications from the Navigator Home tab:
Create a new config file (named something like config.yaml or hidden_apps.yaml) or edit an existing file.
Add something like the following:
vscode: is_available: false
In this example, the VS Code application tile will be hidden from users in the Navigator Home tab.
