In the new version, the only choice given when I open a landmark is to TP. Please bring back the "Show on Map" button! More times than not, I want to check how busy a sim is before I TP there. Now, the only way to find that out is to type the sim name into the Map tab. This one change has made life in SL much more difficult.

Why on earth are they removing stuff that people found to be useful?

From: Zante Zapedzki Why on earth are they removing stuff that people found to be useful? Cause someone added that feature suggestion to the bug triage list, showed up, made the case for prefering it if double-clicking a landmark would tp them, people there agreed and the patch was accepted and now integrated. --- To the OP: you can still get "Show on Map" by right-clicking the landmark and picking "About Landmark" which will pop up an unnecessarilly huge window with the "Show on Map" button. To make things more fun it currently fails the first time you click it, so you have to do it twice for the first landmark to get it to actually work. |

I didn't realize the right-button workaround was there. That's not as convenient, but it's better than the alternative. I'm OK with it.

There is a show on map. Right click the landmark, the top one says "teleport". Scroll down to the bottom one "about landmark". A box appears and the options teleport or show on map. No problem there.

so now when you teleport and some one sets a landing point you don land anywhere near your land mark, and you have no beacon to guide you there... so making this easy one click teleport has just gotten 3 time harder to get where you want. i guess we have to stop asking lindens to fix stuff cause they just make it worse

What is most silly about this is that show on map is still there and they even added an image of the location onto LMs
When you first recieve a LM from a box etc and it opens on your screen the option is there however once you are trying to open it from your inventory you get the tp option instead of a view of the LM seems crazy really.

Strange, I was using "show on map" on my land marks last night. I had read before that it was gone too, so now I am quite confused.
