Adding/Editing project level layouts in P6 vs Global rights

Thanks all. 

Yes i've checked and the layout filters are specific to the project that is open, so i've got no idea why this option is still greyed out for our users.

Only workaround aside from re-granting global access is to have them copy project layout filters to user level and amend them there, but that is not an ideal solution.  

A real head scratcher this one has proved to be!

The issue may be that the filter they are trying to edit, is not related to the projeect currently open. I know in past versions of P^, there was a problem where ALL project filters were displayed regardless of which project was open, but you could only edit the filters associated with the project open, and there was no way of identifying (other than by naming the filter accordingly) to which project they were associated wtih.

Hi all thanks for the responses to date.

All users have access to respective EPS nodes and all project level security profiles have the functionality for amending layouts at project level enabled, but the option for users to modify project level filters is still greyed out which is causing me confusion.

Is there any reason why this would be the case? Assume that project level filters would be editable with these settings enabled?

Many thanks

Just being a bit more spefici about the differences between Global and Project security privileges.

Are you sure you're looking in the right section? Saving Project Level layouts is a Project Security setting and also requies the users to have access to that OBS node. Saving Global layouts is a Global security setting
