A portal option tags a portal and its subsystems as "Only For Administrators". You only need to set the option for one portal and it will be in effect for all subsystems within it.
This prevents the portal from being viewable unless an administrative password is provided. This is set in the Edit->Admin (Portal) Password menu. (Visible when Advanced Menus are shown).
The default password is "admin" (you will need to enter this to change it) and with this default, Planimate automatically grants admin access when the model is loaded (so there is no protection by default).
If the admin password is changed from its default, the admin protection is activated (after the model is reloaded). When an attempt is made to access a protected subsystem (either by direct clicking on a portal, following a jump button or a model initiated screen change), Planimate will prompt the user to provide the password.
The protection does NOT apply to panels associated with a protected portal, so these may be linked to without the user needing the admin password.
