Hiya peeps!
Any body out there know how to take a picture using the keyboard. My eyes (and sometimes head) follow my cursor to where ever I move it and it would be so much easier to snap while "baiting" myself with my mouse. lol
As a part two:
Are the prim cameras that you see in the game actually helpful in anyway? Other than the eye/head thing, I rarely have trouble, so are they really worth upwards of L$2500 to snap a pic?
Thanks guys

Ctrl-Shift-S to bring up the regular panel, Ctrl-` to send the snapshot straight to your hard drive.

On my system, menu options for which there are keyboard shortcuts are shown on the menus on the right side of the menu.
 Take Snapshot's keystroke is shown on the right as Ctrl-Shift-S, Upload Image is shown on the right as Ctrl-U, etc. An easy way to learn the keystrokes that you want to learn is - if you can't remember it, open the menu, read what the keystroke equivalent is, close the menu. then use the keystroke to perform the function, while thinking the phrase that describes the action if you need to. Hopefully over time you will remember the keystrokes. Here's a list of some keyboard shortcuts taken from the sl wiki: Basic List Shortcut Action Ctrl-F Search (previously called Find, hence the shortcut key F) Ctrl-G Gestures Ctrl-H Chat History Ctrl-I Inventory Ctrl-L Link (selected objects in edit) Ctrl-M World Map Ctrl-P Preferences Ctrl-R Run Mode Ctrl-T Instant Message Ctrl-U Upload Image Ctrl-Z Undo (once while in edit - chat window off) Shortcut Action Ctrl-Alt-D Open/Close Debug menu (some systems require Ctrl-Shift-Alt-D) Ctrl-Alt-M Mouse Moves Sun (requires Debug menu on) Ctrl-Alt-T Highlight Transparent Ctrl-Alt-1 Hide/Show UI Ctrl-Alt-6 All Fog Off (Fog is SL default...no fog must be reset every log in) Ctrl-Alt-A Toggle Animate Textures On/Off Ctrl-Shift-A Start/Stop Movie to Disk Ctrl-Shift-L Unlink (selected objects in edit) Ctrl-Shift-M MiniMap Ctrl-Shift-N Force Sunset Ctrl-Shift-S Snapshots Ctrl-Shift-1 Sim Stats (you will need to turn off or move the minimap to view the full stats page) Ctrl-Shift-3 Texture Console (to view textures on a particular object right click and go into edit and then press ALT 3 , the textures for all sides of that object will be highlighted in yellow) Shortcut Action Ctrl-Alt-Shift-= Turn particle effects on/off. Ctrl-Alt-Shift-3 Remove all Linden trees. This is a toggle... press again to turn trees back on. Ctrl-Alt-Shift-5 Remove ground cover. This is a toggle... press again to turn ground cover back on. Shift and Drag Copy object in edit The formatting in the quote above probably didn't work, sigh. The url for that list is http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Help:Keyboard_shortcut_keys . The formatting is better there. _____________________
