Minimal view

At GeoCat we've developed this view as an alternative to the default GeoNetwork view. The view has a subset of functionality available, therefore it looks plain and clear.

Minimal is the default view in GeoNetwork Enterprise. Configure alternative views via Admin ❯ Settings in the field User interface configuration.
