I cannot add a column nor add widgets. Unit beeps when I try.

I can't reproduce that here, but I'm on a more recent snapshot (from today).

If it beeps, there should be a corresponding console message or system log entry. What shows there when you try?

Maybe the account you are using is part of a group that has the Deny Config Write privilege?

Check the permissions on the 'all' group. They were ignored in the past, but recently we fixed that.

(wrote this while I was tinkering so the end result is I found the issue. )

Thats what it looks like.. Logged in as Admin I can do everything.

Just updated to latest snap. This is on bare metal..

Save config permission denied by the 'User - Config: Deny Config Write' permission for user 'usernamehere@2x.xx.xxx.xxx (Local Database)'.

I have two users and they are both part of the admin group. admin and my user name.. Still occurs.

Just made a new user name and same issue.

Ok.. found it. I had selected every rule without reading them all. Second one down.. User- Config: Deny Config Write

Seems backwards compared to the rest of the "allow rules" and does not affect the "admin" account as it does the others..
