Currently you can’t do this.ÃŠ The best way to achieve this sort of thing is to hide the tables menu using preferences:

And then make your own menu.

OK thanks.

I see in NavMenu template loop on $ENV.APPLICATION._tables

there are no possibilities to filter this in ApplicationDeleguate.php ?

OK.. you probably could filter this in the getPreferences() method.ÃŠ You can access this array using:

$app =& Dataface_Application::getInstance();

$tables =& $app->_conf[‘_tables’];

if (userIsNotAllowedToSeeFooTable()){

ÃŠÃŠÃŠ unset($tables[‘foo’]);

}
