Hide "pencil" based on user

Scriptcase 8 Discussion

I have created a link between a grid and a form using the scriptcase tutorial.
I wonder if it is possible to hide/show the “pencil” button / column based on the user login?

Can someone point me in de right direction?

Kind regards,

Marco

Try the following to turn them on / off…

sc_apl_conf("<your_app_name>", "lig_edit", "off");

Hello,

i tried to add “sc_apl_conf(”<your_app_name>", “lig_edit”, “off”);" to the login event, but the pencil is still there, and the user can click and use the link to get to the form.
i am using the app_name which is in de list.

login event?

Look up the usage of that macro in the help - it is used by one app to control another.

So from, say, either your menu app, or login app - call that macro from the onApplicationInit event, but refer to the app of the grid you want to change based on the logged in user: [usr_login]

Sorry,

I made a mistake.
I put the if statement with the “sc_apl_conf(”<your_app_name>", “lig_edit”, “off”);" in the “OnValidateSucces” statement from the “App_login”.
But the statement was after the “sc_redir” statement, so it was not executed. I changed is and it works fine.

Thanks for your help.
