Object inventory contents to a folder

Please add an option to the Contents tab of an object that will create a folder in inventory with the same name as the object, and place all the contents into that folder - basically what the Sell Contents thing does now, for situations where Sell Contents wasn't or can't be used.

And for the love of *%()%*)% god please can we get a major inventory overhaul soon, it is the single worst feature in SL.

Agreed. Since I've opened my store, this is the one feature that's jumped to the top of my list. If we could sell specific folders, it'd be a lot better.

Yes!

And yes, inventory SUCKS. Virtually any windowed UI these days allows multiple select drag and drop. Why is SL still in the dark ages? When it comes to inventory management, it takes literally hours to do something that should take minutes.

I heavily endorse both suggestions.

Why even have a main Contents folder in the Content tab if you aren't going to allow users to make their own folders?

It would be especialy nice if a objects Content had the same abilities as our Inventory, such as all the Create options, so I could Create a new folder in an object, then make a new note card also in that folder, and even a new script. Then sell that folder.

I hate having to open my inventory, make a new note card, click and drag into the object inventory. Its un-needed steps.

Also something that would be cool would be if you could somehow have scripts acknowledge the multiple folders, then you could say make a script that used them like directories and sub directories etc.

And yes our inventories are really er... primitive. Its painfull to use the Inventory.

Right, like if you could right-click on a folder under Contents, then select "disable all scripts in this folder" or "set permissions for all objects in this folder".

Bulk select/copy/paste/delete would be pretty handy too.

Mmmmmm I'd love to have "set all permissions for all objects in this folder", just the idea of that makes me feel all warm and tingly inside.

I have issues.
