Giving roles access to perspectives

In BOL, the page on creating perspectives says

"Dimension and cell security for a perspective are derived from the source cube. However, roles can be given or denied access to a perspective. A role can be denied access to a cube and given access to a perspective of the cube."

However, I can't find out how to grant access to a perspective. There doesn't seem to be anything about it on BOL, and the perspectives don't appear anywhere in the role editor.

Can anybody tell me how to do this? Sorry if I'm being stupid and missing something obvious!

Unfortunately in this version of Analysis Services it is not possible to assign security permission to perspective.

Of cource you can't expect any public commitment to any particular feature :). It has been requested by many customers.

You can create a role object and use BI Dev Studio to grant/deny permissions to dimension members of specific attribute.
