Hi Jeremy,
We had the same problem here. We use Spectra 1.0.1 and could find no way within the
webtop to do this.
In the end i changed some spectra code to get it to happen.
If you want to do it, the file you need to change is called "_preferences.cfm" ...
located in (for me) inetpub/wwwroot/allaire/webtop/home/_preferences.cfm
I just created a security group for each application, and made sure the group name was
exaclty the same as the application name.
Then you put the users in to the right groups.
Then i looped through the groups that the current user is a member of, then deleted
any applications from the list if they didnt match a group name.
Here is the code i used: (i put it just above the select box for the applications.)
<!--- New Code --->
<!--- Deletes the Applications from the Sturcture that the user does not have access
to. --->
<cfset DeleteThese = "">
<cfset username = authenticatedUser()>
<cfloop collection="#stObjects#" item="ObjectID">
<cfscript>
stObjectData = stObjects[objectID];
</cfscript>
<cfa_userGet userDirectory="userDirectory" userName="#Username#"
r_stUser="r_stUser" r_stGroups="r_stGroups">
<Cfset GroupList = structKeyList(r_stGroups)>
<cfset ModGroupList = "">
<Cfloop list="#groupList#" index="g_List" delimiters=",">
<cfif len(g_list) GT 8>
<!--- you will notice that i discard the first 7 letters of the group name, this is
because we name our groups with a 7
letter string at the beggining that makes it easier to read. eg RES_AP_RESTORNET for
the restorenet application. AP stands for application.--->
<cfset ModGroupList = ListAppend(ModGroupList,
Mid(g_list,8,evaluate(len(g_list) - 7)))>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfif ListFindNoCase(ModGrouplist,stObjectData.Label, ",")>
<cfelse>
<cfset DeleteThese = ListAppend(DeleteThese, ObjectID)>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
<cfloop list="#DeleteThese#" index="DeleteThisOne">
<cfset temp = StructDelete(stObjects,deleteThisOne)>
</cfloop>
<!--- End New Code --->
It is probably a good idea to make sure that everyine is in the right application
before you initiate this change, or any others you think of.
Spectra remembers the last app that you were logged into, so if everyone was in the
right application when you initiate this change, it should all be fine!
Hope this helps.
Chris Carpenter.

Subject: Spectra 1.5 Webtop Application drop down
Greetings,
I'm trying to eliminate applications from the Application drop down in the
webtop when a user logs in and doesn't have rights to those applications.
I've found the docs that point at user, group, and site security, but
nothing that talks about the Application drop down. Is what I'm trying to do
possible and if so, can someone point me in the right direction?
