Hello Everyone,
I apologize in advanced for the newbie-related question.
In several instances, when trying to build various objects, I've utilized the "builder's skybox", at altitude, to help align various prims; as well as gain "some" privacy.
Every once in awhile, when attempting to delete something, I end up deleting the floor from beneath me....which leads me to free-falling and wondering what just happened. Needless to say I end up having to reclaim all of my items and de/re-rezz my skybox.
I'm curious if there is a way to make the "floor" of this skybox un-deletable/un-selectable??
Thank you again. ^_^

Set it as "locked" in the Object tab. (^_^)

Every sky-builder does that at least once. Locking the floor is the answer. Handy to remember even if you're in a studio on the ground, so you don't accidentally delete your house while editing prim hair, or whatever...
Incidentally, you *should* be able to just fly up or ride a prim back up there, re-rez the skybox, adjust its position, and continue building.No need to reclaim the build and start over. _____________________
Sorry, LL won't let me tell you where I sell my textures and where I offer my services as a sim builder. Ask me in-world.

Yep, locking it is the solution, it doesn't prevent you from deleting the object, but the warning window popping up warning you it's a locked object will catch you from deleting it. Definitely a newbie question, but that's what the forums are for
 . Once, I was working on a physical object on my platform and I forget to uncheck physical before editing the linked parts. As soon as I deselected the object, all the pieces fell, and since it was phantom, fell through the platform and all the way down to my land below. Needless to say, I was digging out pieces for months !!!http://www.secondscripter.com/ _____________________
