Disable dashboard for UX but run in desktop.

I have a feeling there used to be a config option buried somewhere in the bowels of our config files, but i cannot find it at the moment. 
If you are familiar with dashboarding, you can try to hack your way through by doing the following:

1. Create a Dashboard of type Top Level Without Parameter Prompts
2. Create two Parameters
   1. "HomeDashboard" Input Value with Default Value set to the name of a safe dashboard for the web interface
   2. "HomeDashboardApp" Literal Value with Default Value set to the name of the dashboard you want in the app
3. Create a Component of type Embedded Dashboard, and type |!HomeDashboard!| in the "Embedded Dashboard" property
4. Create a Dashboard Extender rule "HomeSwitchExtender" and edit the first Case block to be this: 

Case Is = DashboardExtenderFunctionType.LoadDashboard
	If args.FunctionName.XFEqualsIgnoreCase("Switch") Then
		If args.LoadDashboardTaskInfo.Reason = LoadDashboardReasonType.Initialize And args.LoadDashboardTaskInfo.Action = LoadDashboardActionType.BeforeFirstGetParameters Then
			Dim loadDashboardTaskResult As New XFLoadDashboardTaskResult()
			If si.ClientModuleType.Equals(ClientModuleType.Windows) Then
				loadDashboardTaskResult.ChangeCustomSubstVarsInDashboard = True
				loadDashboardTaskResult.ModifiedCustomSubstVars = New Dictionary(Of String, String) From {
					{"HomeDashboard", BRApi.Dashboards.Parameters.GetLiteralParameterValue(si, False, Nothing, "HomeDashboardApp" )}
				}
			End If
			Return loadDashboardTaskResult
		End If
	End If

Then in the properties of the Dashboard, set Load Dashboard Server Task to "Execute Dashboard Extender Business Rule (Once)", and in the Arguments property below enter the name of the rule like this: {HomeSwitchExtender}{Switch}{}.

Now make that new Dashboard your default home. When you log on, that code will be executed, embedding either the safe web dashboard or your app-specific one.

(Note: some dashboards don't like being embedded, and might not work properly when displayed like that. In that case, you might have better luck with just a simple button with a Navigation Action that sends you to the fancy dashboard; you just don't click it when you're on the web.)
