FileManagerBrowser and hiding VPP folders/images depending on user/role

Vote:
 

Hi

A client I am working for has a requirement to lock down the visiblity of folders within the FileManagerBrowser.aspx page.  I understand a user can be given permissions such as (create/read/delete) access to individual folders but is there anyways to stop folders/images being shown depending on the user/role.

Basically what I need to happen is if user 1 is viewing images through the file manager they should only be able to see the following top level folders:

/Global/Folder1
/Global/Folder2

And when user 2 is viewing images through the file manager they should only be able to see the following top level folders:

/Global/Folder3

Is this possible?

Regards

Lee

The SDK has some information on creating a custom file manager, so it may be possible to implement security within the custom file manager implementation.
