[ http://wso2.org/jira/browse/REGISTRY-198?page=all ]

Chathura Ekanayake resolved REGISTRY-198.
-----------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Now users can't select both allow and deny. One checkbox is cleared if a user 
tries to select both options.

Other proposed change requires a major change in the permission UI. And may 
give a feeling of a desktop app to the UI, which is not suitable for Web 2.0 
style we are following. So I think we can discuss it more and make changes 
after the 1.0 release if we all agree on such major change.

> The permissions UI on the resource page is confusing.
> You can't both allow and deny the same action for the same user/role, so the 
> allow/deny checkboxes shouldn't be checkable at the same time.  We should at 
> least fix this.
> The UI could be improved as well - I think it would be easier and clearer to 
> do it more like the Windows permissions dialog (I'll include a screenshot).  
> There could be a list box of users/roles for which permissions are defined 
> (you differentiate users and roles with an icon, or with color), then when 
> you select one of those, you see allow/deny checkboxes for each of the active 
> permissions.  To add permissions, you just add the user or role to the list 
> of principals, then select permissions and click "apply".
> This would make the UI a lot more compact, and I think clearer.
