In addition to the addition of roles “Enabled”，then add roles in every windows.  
Is there a more convenient way?

If you've added an Enabled role to mock this functionality, I would be using this to auto logout the user after they log in

Add a Role "Disabled".  
Then in Vision Starup add script.  
I think it's right!

```python
########### 判断是否是禁用用户 ###########
userName = system.security.getUsername()
user = system.user.getUser("", userName)
if("Disabled" in user.getRoles()):
#	print(u"是禁用用户")
	system.security.logout()
	system.gui.messageBox(u"对不起，您是禁用用户，不能登录该系统！",u"提示")

```
