Removing the `help` button in the toolbar

How can we remove the help button in the toolbar ?

Google searches bokeh removing helper button in toolbar & bokeh removing help button in toolbar did not provide any result. The doc doesn’t seem to cover this.

Thanks !

Hi Nicolas,

You can currently remove the entire toolbar by setting toolbar_location=None, but AFAIK there is no way to selectively remove just the help icon. This is probably a reasonable feature to add. Please do make a feature request issue on GH:

  Issues · bokeh/bokeh · GitHub

And we will prioritize and schedule it (unless you'd also like to contribute a PR to add this!) for the short term milestone list.

Thanks,

Bryan
