What makes users to appear in the “Author” list within “Properties” dialog?

[PeterHeintz]

Within my project I have security enabled with some groups and users.
Today I realized that some of the users are selectable in the Author field within the properties dialog and others are not.
By giving a missed user all permissions I verified that what is shown in the list has nothing to do with permissions at all.

Using V13 I find out that there is a new Checkbox “Add User to Authors” in the “Security Users” dialog. This Checkbox is checked for all users. I even unchecked and checked on again for a user not in the list (without success).
Any idea?

Hi Simon,
yes, but I am pretty sure I have never filled out that form, because EA was kindly enough to do that for me (at least partly). Now I am looking for the answer why not completely?
Look also at „Add User to Authors“ checkbox in „Security Users“ Dialog (V13).

Apart from the “Magic Competitor” EA is Magic as well. So one trigger to get a user in the list, is just a login of that user.
