    Hiding grid filters by role

    Is there a way of completley hiding a filter view on a grid by role.?

    At the moment I can still see the filter name in the dropdown but it can't be selected by certain roles. I would like to hide the filter completely.

    Thanks.

    Hi Andy,

    On step 2 of the wizard for creating a filter view, you should be able to select the roles that can view the filter.  On my tests, the filter did not show in the dropdown.

    Andy,

    To add a bit to this.  This feature is not fully functional yet, so I'd advise to use at your own risk.  It may work as expectd, but I'd recommend doing extensive testing first, to ensure proper roles are viewing the proper views.  

    This was a feature that was expected to be implemented but was eventually postponed, due to a new screen designer coming out sometime this summer.  The new screen designer will have this feature fully operational.
