Hi Kristina,

Are you talking about the link to the access page from the view itself?

I just discovered that by clicking on the visible 'Edit Access' in the
top right of the view takes me back to the current views access page
without realising that it is part of a collection.

I am wondering if we might want to:

a) change 'Edit Access' to go to the collections access page when the view is 
part of a collection and,
b) add an 'Edit Collection' link up there - so that a user can be looking at 
their new collections display and decide that "hang on that view doesn't quite 
belong in this collection now that I think about it ... " or "hmm, I want to 
change that navigation order around a bit" and want easy access back to this

Obviously there might be other solutions but these seem the easiest. :)

Bug description:
When a view is in a collection, its "Edit Access" page is still accessible and 
the access rights can be changed. When I went into the collection access 
rights, the new user had been added as well though I did not get a message on 
the view access page telling me that I update the collection access at the same 
time. 

When I go to the view access page of another view in the same collection, I 
still have the old access rights in there.

As collection access rights overwrite view access rights, I would disable the 
"Edit View Access" link on a view that sits in a collection. The user cannot 
get to it from the view overview page - why should he get to it on the actual 
view? That would make it easier to edit the access rights for a collection 
really only on the collection page.
