Configure security for graphics

You can set IDE security permissions so that at design time, the user cannot:

• Import or export graphics.

• Create, modify, or delete graphics in the Visualization folder.

• Create, modify, or delete graphics in any AutomationObject template.

• Create, modify, or delete graphics in any AutomationObject instance.

• Create, modify, or delete View Applications, such as InTouchView Applications.

• Deploy or undeploy View Applications, such as InTouchView Applications.

• Edit the configuration of the quality and status display.

To restrict a user, the user must be assigned to a role and the permissions must be assigned to that role, and security must be enabled. For more information on how to configure security, users, and roles, see the Application Server User’s Guide.

If the user attempts to export a graphic without appropriate permissions, the message "User doesn’t have permission to export graphics object" appears.

If the user attempts to import a graphic without appropriate permissions, the message "User doesn’t have permission to import graphics object" appears.
