Permissions

Overview

The Spikemark Permissions list is a comprehensive list of many components within the application that can be locked down. It allows for a fine-grained approach to controlling access between different users.

There are over 100 permissions you can select from when building your perfect Spikemark role. To help guide role editing, here's the list of all the permissions and a brief description of each.

Permission List

When creating or editing a role, Permissions that are checked off will be granted to the role and users in it, while unchecked permissions will not be included in the role.

Axis Editor

Add and delete an axis (e.g. Motor, FX, etc.) from the show.

Axes are normally added from the Stagehand menu, and deleted through the context menu of the Stagehand Axis List of the Cues Workspace or Jog Workspace. Those menu items will be grayed out when this permission is missing from the role.

Goable Editor

Edit parameters of a cue or its components.

Goables, in Spikemark parlance, are cues and the component parts that make up a cue. Clicking on a:

• cue

• sequence

• step

• movement

• trigger

• action

will bring up an editing window. If this permission is missing from the role, the parameters of the Goable will be displayed as read-only. No changes to the cue structure can be made without this permission.
