Customizing object display and object details in MicroStrategy Developer
You can designate which objects are displayed on the right side of MicroStrategy Developer. For example, you can decide to only display those objects for which you have Read and Write access, only those objects for which you are the Owner, and so on. You can also choose to display hidden objects.
You can also designate what details for each object are displayed, such as the object's Owner, the Access type that is granted to you for each object, and so on.
If you have privileges to access the Report Editor and other object editors, these settings also affect the object display in each editor's Object Browser.
