Greetings. This concerns the Security property on panels. There are some particular circumstances, as follows:
* Panel X with multi-line Y and dropbox Z, initially disabled
* Panel X has several tabs; let's call them X.1 and X.2
* Panel (tab) X.1 Security has, let's say...
* Full access for Classification MGR
* View-only access for Classification USER (we need that view access so that the tab always draws for everyone; everyone has at minimum the USER classification assigned to them)
* The situation in which we encountered this was a file maintenance type panel, but I confirmed this happens with a panel with tabs that was not generated as FM
So if a MGR launches the panel, the two objects are initially disabled as expected. If they then navigate to the first record in the file, that executes a process that enables the objects, because for a MGR, they should be enabled.
But for a USER, we expect the objects to remain disabled, and in fact for multi-line Y, the panel Security keeps it disabled. But dropbox Z enables, and that is not the behavior we expected. (This also happens when we try assigning the security to dropbox Z itself)
I look forward to your feedback.
