You can uncheck all suppliers but the panel will still pop up even though it has no data to display (no data because all suppliers are disabled).</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">To permanently disable the Supply Chain Insight panel you need to use <strong>regedit.exe</strong> so this modification is entirely at your own risk. Make sure you know what you are doing and have any necessary backups in place. Navigate to the following registry path where {guid} is a long number unique to your installation:</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong style="font-family:&#39;courier new&#39;, courier;">HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Altium\CircuitStudio {guid}\DesignExplorer\Preferences\Client\Client Preferences</strong></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">and change <strong style="font-family:&#39;courier new&#39;, courier;">SupplyChainInsight</strong> to 0 to disable the feature or to 1 to enable. You will need to re-start CircuitStudio for the change to take effect.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: sch, howto, circuitstudio</div>
