Hello,
I have some questions about security, which I can not seem to implement the way I would like: to hide the domain entities in the Entities list.
In my Services model I have quite a number of entities which are used only as a domain for other attributes, for example an entity IsTrueOrFalse (with 2 values: True & False). This entity is used as a domain for a number of attributes, e.g.
the attribute IsGlobalService on an entity called Service.
Now, I do want users to be able to update the Service entity and its IsGlobalService attribute. But I would rather not have the IsTrueOrFalse entity show up in the Entities list in the Explorer. Is that possible? When I set the Update rights on the Service,
the Entities list automatically shows all the entities used as a domain by the Service attributes.
I also tried the ‘Deny’ option in the security model.At first sight that seemed to have the desired effect: the IsTrueOrFalse entity was not visible in the Entities list anymore.However, when I tried to edit the IsGlobalService attribute on a certain Service, the drop down list was blank also. Even worse: after leaving the field, even when I use Esc, the field is
blank! The value that was previously there is gone.
Is this really how this is supposed to work...?
