The actions currently selected in the Actions window, on the currently selected targets are granted for the currently selected group. |
![]() |
The actions currently selected in the Actions window, on the currently selected targets are denied for the currently selected group. |
![]() |
The permission to perform the actions currently selected in the Actions window, on the currently selected targets, is not granted explicitly, however the actions are granted by default. For example because the respective permission is assigned to the “parent object”. Example: The group has got the respective permission for object “myplc”, and for this reason it has this permission also for object “myplc.pb_1”. |
![]() |
The action currently expanded in the Actions window, on the currently selected targets, has not been denied explicitly, however the actions are denied by default. For example because the respective permission is assigned to the “parent object”. |

Symbol bar:
![]() |
The currently selected action on the currently selected target is explicitly granted for the currently selected group. |
![]() |
The currently selected action on the currently selected target is explicitly denied for the currently selected group. |
![]() |
