Well, for your use you could just hardcode some permission "groups" and include them in the dtml-file which resembles zopes security screen. A little bit javascript and selecting one of your groups would automagically be checked when you check one of your groups. What I'm missig more is flexibility for the "Add object" mechanism. The possibility to install products not globally, but locally for a folder and it's subfolders and some hierachical sorting of "add type" selectbox. Perhaps the tree could be (ab-)used to get a structure like + text product - DTML Document - DTML Method + Images, Files - Image - File + SQL Stuff - ZSQL Method - PoPy Database Connection - Search Interface etc To get back to the topic, perhaps your wishes and mine could be combined: A permissions group for "edit text products" which would automatically select the right permissions. cheers, oliver ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ) ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Hi! With OrderedFolder, you can at least clean up the Add menu locally. That might help for a lot of situations. It is not creating tree views yet, but it's a start ...

True, good idea. If the list gets too big (we are not there yet) we might do this. But it would be nice to have general support for it.

I like the idea of having the permissions grouped in the management screen :-) Best, Leon de Heus Op Thu 22-11-2001, om 11:56 schreef Lennart Regebro: > The list of permissions is getting quite long.

[Zope-dev] Wild and crazzzzy idea: Hierarchial permissions
The list of permissions is getting quite long. It's the basic permissions of Zope, plus the ones for our CM system. And we haven't even integrated CMF with it (which we may or may not do in the future). To make things easier to find we have names all our permissions "Easy ". I then got the idea that the permission list could be hierarchial or filtered or grouped or something. All permissions would have another setting to specify it group. That way the Zope base permissions could be grouped together into a "Zope Base" persmission group. We could group our in an "Torped Easy Publisher" permission group, and so on.
