4.7.4 Restructuring action clusters

By default, all technically feasible actions on an object are grouped in five action clusters:

If you need a different assignment of actions than that provided by the BSCW default action clusters, you may modify the columns of the Access control table and define new action clusters in additional columns:

• Click the    icon to the left of the object's type icon

to display the object's Info page.

• Click    on the top button bar in the Info page

to bring up the 'Access control table for object name' form.

• Below the table, click

  to display an extended form.

• Below the table in the extended form, click

  to display the 'Action table for object name' form.

The table in this form lets you

• disable actions for this particular object,
• assign individual actions to different action clusters.

In addition, you may add a column to extend the table for a new action cluster of your own design.

• Click

  to use the revised table for assigning access control values.

BSCW will display the Access control table with the revised action clusters, so you may assign the appropriate access control values.

Note:

Access rights based on user-defined clusters are not inherited. If you add objects to a Folder, Meeting or Discussion object whose access rights are based on user-defined action clusters, the embedded objects will have BSCW's default access rights.
