Buttons seen disabled in GTK are enabled in Web Client

[Sharoon Thomas http://openlabs.co.in]

Unlike the GTK client, where buttons are disabled if the user has no access rights... the web client shows the button.. on clicking the same page is refreshed and the action of the button is NOT performed.

It would be nice to have the button disabled in web client also.

Guess this should go to wish list!

Hello,

I think its better to keep like current, as currently each method checks for access rights before executing so this would be the better.

its not so complex to implement what proposed, but this will add again 3 more condition should be executed to generate view.

From a useablity point of view, this is really confusing for the user. The user *thinks* they can delete a record because they see the 'Delete' button, or thinks that should be able to edit a record because they see the 'Edit' button. This is causing a number of complaints from users - most other systems do not work like this.

I understand your point about the extra check that will need to be done when loading the view, but it makes the system look more amateurish. At least, can developers be provided with a method to be able to remove any of the 'New', 'Edit', 'Duplicate' or 'Delete' buttons via a condition in the XML? That would allow developers to make the forms much more intuitive, which affecting performance.

For example, allowing developers to be able to hide a button based on a domain condition (like [('state','!=','draft')]) would be a a workable solution.
