Certain layers can be defined as "special" in the SRC file. Once layers have been defined as special, you can configure the permissions for them. Note that, by default, all permissions are allowed. You can turn some of these permissions off.
To turn off permissions for special layers:
1. Open the SRC file in a text editor.
2. Define the required layer types as special. For details, see Defining layers as special.
3. In the [System] section, type in the following keynames and set them to 0 to turn off that permission for special layers.
initial value for read permission on special layers=
initial value for modify permission on special layers=
initial value for delete permission on special layers=
initial value for create permission on special layers=
initial value for print permission on special layers=
initial value for hide permission on special layers=
4. Save the SRC file and compile it. (For details, see Compiling a CFG file.)
All layers opened or created in Imagenation are assigned the specified permissions. These permissions are not saved with the layers. If you change the CFG file during an Imagenation session, permission changes apply to future layers.
Note that the CFG file allows you to set permissions globally. If you want to set permissions for specific layers, you can use one of the Imagenation APIs. For more information, see the DDE API, C API, or Image a•X Control Help files.
