Using the Restrict Column Editor

The Restrict Columns Editor is used from the Column-Based Rules section of the cBase Access and Model Access sub-tabs to set the columns you wish to restrict users from seeing. Restricting columns is configured the same in both the cBase Access and Model Access sub-tabs of the Access for tab.

NOTE: The Restricted Areas section of the DiveTab Access tab uses a similar dialog box, labeled Restrict Areas Editor, for restricting access to areas.

This procedure is based on using a cBase example—the same steps apply to setting restricted columns for models and restricted areas for DiveTab.

To set columns that you want restricted for a cBase:

  1. In an open project, right-click the project or directory, and select Edit Access Control.

  2. In the Access for / tab, click cBase Access.

  3. In the Column-Based Rules section, next to Restricted Columns, click ClosedAdd Columns.
