You can limit what a user can do by setting user capability control properties at Framework startup. Typically you do this in your system's IIP (similar to the shipped example DF_OSYSTM).

You might set these options from custom properties associated with the user, or any other logic. For example, this line prevents the current user from using the panel zoom feature:

    #AVFRAMEWORKMANAGER.avUserCapability.AllowPanelZooming := False

The controllable user capabilities are:

AllowMaximizePanel

Allow panels to be maximized.

AllowMinimizePanel

Allow panels to be minimized.

AllowSettingsPanel

Allow the settings option on panels.

AllowBusinessObjectSettingsMenu

Allow the settings option on the business object bar.

AllowClosePanel

Allow panels to be closed.

AllowMovePanel

Allow panels to be moved.

AllowSizeFilters

Allow filters to be resized.

AllowSizeCommandhandlers

Allow command handlers to be resized.

ShowSingleObjects

Show a single business object at a time. 
This property should only be set to True when LockAutoTilingOn is also set to True.

LockAutoTilingOn

Lock auto tiling on. The auto-tile check box is invisible.

LockAutoTilingOff

Lock auto tiling off. The auto-tile check box is invisible.

AllowPanelZooming

Allow panels to be zoomed.

OverrideOpenBusinessObjectInstances

Override how many business object instance can be concurrently open.

Typically, these options are used to limit the options a new user has.

For example setting OverrideOpenBusinessObjectInstances := 1 prevents the user from opening multiple business object instances, even though the Framework definition has the open limit set to 5.  

Equally, using LockAutoTilingOn := True and ShowSingleObjects := True produces a 'full screen' version of the VLF-ONE Framework which acts more like traditional and simpler web interfaces.    

Note: Unless otherwise indicated, you should only enable these user capability control options when executing in desktop mode. Enabling these options in phone or tablet mode is not supported and may cause unpredictable results.
