So please advice, Alex ? Please don't put inside more than necessary. Just username and permissions. If you really like to have full Name, Surname, then add a tooltip. But I strongly vote against it. It should be a tab to change permissions, not a tool to manage users/groups. It could be, that in the future we will have to display more than just POSIX ACLs. For example for samba share mounted from Windows we could present more permissions. Or for a Windows network share files. Regards, Olaf
