In the next version please fix the problems youve caused for me and others. I can no longer fly without having to use the toolbar button to do it, and it's impossible to chat when i have a window active... I never had these problems before so please unbreak it. Its a friggin hassle having to close the chat window just so you can fly, and to minimize everything just so you can chat.

Had some griefer issues earlier. I opened their profile and i could not select their name to copy it. A orange border apeared arround the group list but i could not get it to highlight the text in the name field. Also while that window was open i could not chat or move. I found this to be a real hassle and it almost prevented me from dealing with the griefer. Also as the griefer flew off, i tried to lock my camera on them to follow them but something reversed my view to face AWAY from him.

The Copy / Paste problem is a known bug and Lindens have said it will be fixed quickly.
If you want to move when a floater is open, just hit ESC once and you are set. Flying still works at least for me - Home key or F key - but it might be due to the fact that I have the chat bar close when hitting ENTER. _____________________

Many people do not want to have the chat bar to *ever* have to be closed. I'm one, and I guess Yiffy Yaffle is another.

Another problem i found is you know the new clip off menus? Go to the file menu or any other, and try to clip it off to it's own window by clicking the verticle ========'s. Now try to move that window around. Does it move? Not for me. :/

Yes i figure the whole part of SL being a virtual world, is to CHAT and SOCIALIZE. This sorta throws that out the window. Restricts you from chatting while your doing other things. :/ _____________________

I used to be able to push Home/Fly and it'd recenter, now I have to hit esc. (close the chat bar), esc. (recenter), and then Enter (open chat bar). What a pain in the tail. |

All you whiners got your way with the HOME key being reverted back to its original broken usage.
So congratulations, you now have two ways (HOME and PGUP) to initiate flight from the keyboard, but I am left without a way to move my cursor position to the beginning of the chat line. Another case of "he who yells loudest wins." |

True to that. Why can't we just have our own keyboard customization? Having everyone do things the same way is so low tech.. Word of Advice "If you can't please everyone, make it customizable with option toggles!". Odd thing is i was in the preview grid a and didn't have these problems before. I probably didn't look that hard though. Personally i duno who complained to get the interface into this situation but they should have said more then they did cuz aparently they didn't get through. I dought that anyone likes this nightmare.

I said it on the blog before ... The HOME key only starts flying when the chat bar is empty, i.e. in a situation where the normal HOME functionality is completely useless.

PGUP is more of a jump, hold it to fly. HOME is start flying now. But I STILL want it to recenter the camera when I'm sitting instead of a double-escape-enter sequence. |
