No, that's not the start of some weird joke. These are the four types of user roles in Showcase Workshop:
- Admins (all-powerful users; can do anything except get a free puppy from Showcase)
- Editors (can edit presentations and access the File Library)*
- Managers (can manage Editor, Manager, and Viewer users but not presentations or Admin users)
- Viewers (this is the default user type when you add a user to your workshop)
Here's a run-down of what each user can and cannot do:
