The Latest Upgrade Sucks!!!!!

I have yet to find anything good about it and it has messed up things that were working fine.

1) black text in history each time i log in
2) cursor keeps being removed from chat field when using the camera controls
3) clicking values in the edit box now highlights the whole number instead of just putting the cursor where you click
4) folders either all open or closed in the texture picker window and does not go to the texture you select with the cursor on an object
5) scripted objects revert to the last listening state when tp'ing or crossing sim boundries
6) (from last upgrade) the recent items tab opens when you drag an item over it. This is annoying in the extreme when you are adding scripts to a number of prims and have to repeat the process numerous times.

instead of making minor changes to controls which both annoy and confuse users why not spend some time making things less time consuming like having the inv windows only open folders when the cursor is over them for several seconds and not instantly or slow the scroll speed down when several items are selected to move to another folder. I have spent ages trying to get it to stop at the right folder so i could drop the items into it


Its all very nice to have a pretty looking interface but if it does not function then it may as well be just black blobs with numbers

I would like to expand on the black text. I set my chat colors to my prefered and all the other chat colors went to black text also when I logged back in.

I have to manually set these each time I log on now. The new settings don't stick. Yes I did report the bug.

One other thing I would like to complain about is the new snapshot feature. I like all the options in the new menu but hate the way the preview of the snapshot takes over the whole screen. Please put back the small preview window even if its an option. I like to see chat and activity as I take pictures, this new "Feature" Sucks dog doo doo.

I've had all of those bugs and more, and judjung by the forums there's a lot of other people unimpressed with this version.
I hate the new building flaws like #3, and there's even more minor bugs popping up as I go.
Its not like the new options are all that great, the camera interface is too complicated and fiddly for the common uses of the function, the new pie menu feature loves to randomly pick buttons at will... and they seam to installed many more bugs than features.

Lets hope someone in charge bothers to read the forums and realizes what a complete balls-up this patch has been.


"And the SL award for the Biggest Lemon goes to... This update!"

Might it only occur when the subject of the right click is on the edge of the screen? If so that's a bug where the repositioning of the mouse (to center it in the pie menu) is picked up as a pie-gesture.
