Editing Bug STILL There...

I am still getting that editing bug, and my packet loss issue is "better" but still there as well.

The editing bug which I speak of, I have no idea how to cause it... It seems to appear at random and not go away until a complete reinstall of SL is done.

What happens basically is that I am no longer able to edit other peoples items unless I click "edit" twice on the pie menu. Once to bring the tools window up, and another to edit the object. It seems to appear at random, some times after crashes, or just sometimes out of no where for no reason. I have had to install SL about 20 times in the last week and the bug just keeps coming back. It works fine for about a few hours, then all of a sudden it happens and i have to reinstall again.

Someone else has got to have seen this... It never did it pre 1.10.6.0 and now its doing like crazy... I also don't like not being able to reply to my posts here... Torley asked me some questions last time in his reply, but I was unable to reply to him in the same thread.

Please feel free to send me email (torley@lindenlab.com) with more details. I've not heard of this commonly so far, but if it is indeed a bug, I'm hoping we can help you hunt it down.

I'll move this to Technical Issues too, so you and anyone else who knows can reply.

I've seen this behaviour, too.

I couldn't reproduce this behaviour, it seems to be random.

UPDATE:
I'm the bug myself :) I forgot to uncheck "Select Only My Objects" in the Tools- Menu after having fun in the sandbox around the corner...

This usually means you have "select only my objects" set in the menus.
