Issue/Introduction

I would like to disable PF3=close on the NetMaster primary menu.

On two of my systems, PF3 does nothing on the primary menu, but on one system it signs me out of NetMaster. I am trying to make them all behave the same.
 

How to enable or disable PF3=Close or PF3=Exit on the Primary Menu?

Resolution

The NetMaster Primary Menu has a parameter group settings through /PARM $NM PMENUCONTROL. F3 to Close Window/Logoff? .....  field.

If it is set to YES then pressing F3 will close the current window if there is more than one active or logoff in another case.

In case F3=Close is set to NO, then the F3 key does no longer appear on the Primary menu and it is not possible to quit by PF03. Only =X primary command is required.

 

It is possible to change this value to take dynamically in account by pressing PF06(Action) and PF03(Save and Quit). It may be necessary to logoff/logon to see the effect.
