Field extraction permissions questions

Hi,

If I create a field extraction in the context of App1 and set the permissions as Global and give Everyone read permissions, should the fields be visible in searches in App2?

I had this situation recently and nothing I did could change anything until I moved the field extraction from App1 to App2 and then the user who only can access App2 was able to see the fields in search.

Is there somewhere where all this is clearly documented?

Cheers,

Jeremy.
