Re: Sharing settings

 

Right. I think this has two sides to it - for basic metadata like data
elements it makes sense to at least allow it to become public when creating
an object. Otherwise, inexperienced users might have a hard time
understanding that you need to share it before anyone else can see it. A
solution to this would be to have a basic sharing UI inside the "add new"
object screens, so that for users with "create public" authorities, you can
choose whether to make it public or private before creating an object.
