Hi there Everyone!!

I publish 3 monthly magazines, calanders and catalogues here in SL and I am always uploading the finished pages for them, Hundreads of pages a month. And after I have uploaded them, I need to manually set the permissions so that they will work in my ThinC book we use.

Needless to say, this is alot of mouse clicks to do every month like this.

I suggest that when doing a batch upload, that there is a dialog box which comes up with the three checkboxes, so you can assign the permissions on all the textures you upload right at the beginning so it can save you the time afterwards.

What do other people think? :)

Yes, I agree this would be nice.

Ive found that currently you can make things go a bit faster by selecting all the object (textures or whatever), and then clicking properties. You are shown a properties screen with left and right arrow keys at the top, you can then set permissions a bit quicker than if you open properties on the items one by one.

Yes, that's how I do them too, but still requires about 20 minutes of repetitive clicking and then massaging my fingers for another 20 minutes. hehehe
