How to browse THISUSER parameters

im using DeltaV 11.3.1 and have a command button on a graphic which i only want visible when a user is logged in who has 'user lock 01' privileges or are part of a user group.

im unable to find out how to browse to all the workstation parameters associated with THISUSER. Any help please?

Thanks

Stu

  You can type the parameter path into the Animations/Visibility Expert dialog rather than browsing for it. If your lock is named "user_lock_01" and the area of concern is named "AREA_A" you can set a visibility discriminator by typing the following into the data source field:
  
  DVSYS.THISUSER/USER_CAN.F_CV[AREA_A][user_lock_01]
  
  Then set the Condition and the Condition value as desired. The data source defined above will return a "1" if the user logged in has the key for the lock in the area and a "0" if not.
  
  The DeltaV Display Parameters help file is a good resource to consult for more information. There is a section specific to THISUSER Workstation Parameters.
