We have Contour installed on a site where there are a few editors who need permission to create and edit forms. The editors have been given 'Manage Forms' permissions in the users section but they have a problem when creating new forms in that an administrator then has to go in and give them edit permissions on the form before they can continue working on it.
Is there a way around this? Ideally i'd like editors with access to Contour to be able to create and edit forms without administrator involvement.
I just investigated this issue (as a client reported it) and this appears to only happen when using the create form area in the right dashboard area, if you add a new form by right clicking on the forms node and selecting create then the user automatically gets full access to the form. I will report this as a Contour bug.

Hi any work around for this issue, except changing editor user type to administrator user type. we are encountering the same issue.
Thanks.
