You can add this CSS rule:
.exhibit-copyButton { display: none; }
Exhibit uses a lot of CSS classes. You can use FireBug [1] or similar
tools to see these classes and override them to fit your needs.
However, if the Copy All button were less ugly and intrusive, may I
convince you to keep it?
My research is about making reusable data on the Web cheaper [2], and
the Copy All button is intended to help toward that goal. By letting you
easily make rich visualizations with sophisticated browsing features
using Exhibit, in return, I hope that the data you have put so much
efforts in to collect can readily be reused by people who visit your
site. They can simply copy the data out in some reasonably structured
format and paste it into, say, spreadsheets for their own uses. There is
no programming involved to extract the data, unlike in our previous work
[3]. The hard work of collecting the data and getting it into a
structured form is only done once by you, but it benefits so many other
people--your own site's visitors, your target audience.
Of course, Exhibit is free and you can use it in whatever way you like,
which is why I've made it quite easy to override individual settings.
If you feel "cheap reusable data" is a worthy goal but simply think the
Copy All button is ugly and intrusive (so do I), please help me make it
more acceptable.
