Weird behavior in my Drupal 7.7 + Views 7.x-3.0-rc1 install.

1) I create a view with a page display, display1, which has access settings set to 'role' with just 'role1' able to access the view
2) I create a clone of the display, display2, which I set to access > role, this time with 'role2' able to access the view
3) I save
4) I go back to display1, only to find the access settings set to enable role2 to be able to access display1.
5) I set these back to role1, only to find display2's access settings set to enable role1 to access it

Long story short : The access > role settings seem to be shared across displays. Is this by design or a bug? In case of the first, consider this issue closed. In case of the second: just thought I'd let you know.

(Making different views for now)

Best regards!
Wouter

Is the access still not overridden alias on the master display?
You can check this by looking at the select at the top of the access configuration page.

This can be also answered by looking at the export.

You are right.

What I did not know was that the override settings need to be set for both the 'Access restrictions' settings as well as the related 'Access options'. The latter was set to override, but the first was not.

That clears things up. Thanks.

Closing this issue, since everything works as intended.
