Set User Permissions for Customized Toolbars and Buttons

Use the JMP Menu Editor to specify which users can see your customized toolbars and buttons. Your changes are saved in a text file with the .jmpcust extension called a customization set. By default, your customizations are shown only to the current user; other users who log on to the computer and open JMP do not see your personal toolbars and menus.

All customization sets include the built-in JMP buttons and menus. You can also base customization sets on other customization sets. For example, you might create a new customization set that shows the JMP add-in menus and toolbars along with your modifications.

When you modify the Current user customization set, JMP creates a backup file of the set. The file is located in your Windows Users folder within the JMP or JMPPro folder.

C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\SAS\JMP\17\

When you modify the All users customization set, JMP creates a backup file of the set. The file is located in the Windows All Users folder within the JMP or JMPPro folder.

C:\Users\All Users\SAS\JMP\17\

The All Users folder does not appear when you try to browse for it, so you must type the path into the Windows Explorer address field.

Note: To find the customization set files in Windows Explorer, show all hidden files in the Windows Explorer Folder Options. See your operating system documentation for details.

To change the customization set, follow these steps:

1. Select View > Customize > Menus and Toolbars.

The Menu Editor appears.

2. Click Change.

When you try to change the customization set, and changes to the selected set are not saved, you are prompted to save the changes. Click Save Changes.

3. Select the customization set in the Customization Set to Modify area. (By default, changes apply only to the Current user customization set.) Customization Set Options describes the options.

4. (Optional) To change the set on which the selected customization set is based, select the set in the Starting Set area. (Not available for the All users customization set.) Customization Set Options describes the options.

5. Click OK.
