Ever since I got my new computer, I have an interesting problem. When I am in mouselook, my view drifts slowly to the left. This does not affect anything else besides mouselook in SL. Ideas?

This issue has been reported, and apparently not been corrected.

Change your UI scale.

My case was it was drifting up whenever my UI was at 0.9

I currently use 0.95 or 1.00 to keep it from happening.

Wow! That makes sense *raises an eyebrow* ... thanks for the tip ... I am going to try that when I get home.

Interesting. I had scaled down my UI before I got my new machine, and there was no problem - new machine, problem. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction - I will try this when I get home tonight.

It makes even more sense when you learn that these two problems are tied to the UI scaling:

Mouselook cursor drifting
Dragged selector missing objects

I have a feeling that even the edit window (large scripts and notecards) slowdown is connected to the UI scaling.


@Chronic
I'm puzzled at the leftward mouselook drift. So far the reports have been only upward drift.

I'm not sure! It's not like I spend most of my time on my side or anything.

See above for solution. In which direction does your head move?
