How to set permissions on certain Webparts of the Webpart Gallery?

Question

Hi,

I have a couple of webparts available in the Webpart Gallery. I do not want all those who have access to use every webpart, but only a few and some esp. not ;-)

Is it possible to set permissions on certain webparts in the webpart gallery so that certain people cannot use them when looking for available webparts?

Thanks

Sven

Hi,

that page shows how to assign permissions to webpart pages, but I want to restrict the usage of webparts before somebody has added them to a page.

Some Functional Admins shall not be able to drag certain webparts to a certain page.

Do you understand?
