quite often it's all in our lost and found, but combined.

instead of the single box image there is a multi-box image.

in effect it's like selecting multiple unlinked objects and picking them up.

rez them and see what all got lumped together

remember... be in edit mode when rezzing coalesced objects, so as to not lose anything, and you can move them as one unit that way

Here's the Knowledge Base explanation of what probably happened:

From: someone

The Coalesce feature may cause confusion by making it appear that objects have vanished instead of being returned to your inventory. When a group of objects gets returned, they are merged into a single, coalesced object. This object is then placed back into your inventory, in your Lost and Found folder. This happens when you or the owner of a parcel returns objects to owner. If it is group owned land then if you were the previous owner you will receive the coalesced objects in your lost and found.

For example, imagine you have a living room. Inside the living room there is a television, coffee table, sofa, rug and a remote control. Then, by accident, everything is returned! To locate the returned objects, you search through your inventory, but after searching, the only object you can locate is the remote control. Where did everything else go? The television, coffee table, sofa and rug have been merged with the remote control. Simply drag the remote control from your inventory onto the ground everything else that was returned with the remote control should appear.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

You'll find it may even look like a single object, rather than multiple, and it will be just called "object".

To make it easier to find, use "sort by date". Then start at the top and work your way down.

Thank you for advice.....i did find a few things all together in one "lost and found" file........but the bulk of it is still missing..........haven't found any "object" listings that were any of the missing stuff.
Thank You

The television, coffee table, sofa and rug have been merged with the remote control.

In the particular case described in the knowledge base, if you can't find the remote control, look in the couch or recliner.
