How can you tell an animation / pose's priority?

I have a bunch of animations and poses that I'm trying to sort out. I want to sort them in part by priority. However, I don't see anywhere where that information is stored. Is there a way of determining the priority it has been set to?

There's nothing in the properties of an animation that will tell you what it is. Nothing in LSL scripting to get that info. I just uploaded a pose 5 times at priorities 0 to 4. Then I just play the animation in question while I play each of the poses until they override the animation.

Advanced->Character->Animation Info will show you a list of what's playing and the priorities. This does mean you have to audition them individually but at least the information is there.

I did not know that. All this time, I would have loved to have known that. Anyhoo, thanks for the tip!

Of course just remember that one of the built in default animations has two different priorities as we learned earlier, the in world anim info only shows one...

Of course that wouldn't affect any user uploaded animations! Wouldn't that be nice? ;)

Suggestion -- find one of the free "animation vendors" to speed up cycling through 'em.

Can you point to where 'we' learned that? News to me :)

Where can I find the Advanced menu?

Alt-ctl-D on Windows

Alt-Ctl-Shift-D on Linux

Dunno about Mac.

"Advanced" is "Client" on older viewers.
