Hello! Where or how can I limit the Max Current Session in Perspective per user. For example in my Project I have an user called: "Admin" and I want to have only 1 session open.

You'll start in `Perspective -> Session Events -> Startup` from the project browser in the designer. This is untested, but it could look like this

```auto
sessionInfo = system.perspective.getSessionInfo(projectFilter="Admin Project")
for sessionObj in sessionInfo:
	if sessionObj["username"] == "Admin":
		system.perspective.closeSession("Only one session is allowed")

```
