Amiryu Hosoi Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hi guys, I am on the edge of finishing my first updated catalog Decor & Lighting. (1 out of 12) All product pictures are finished, all items renamed and given better description, inworld and in invenrtory and all description notecards are ready.Next step will be setting up servers for Hippo and for the Marketplace. What I need to know is the following; Is there anyone that can tell me if it is possible and if not, if there is a jira for importing textfiles to notecards? This catalog alone is 165 items. If I could import textfiles with content and filename preserved I would be more then happy.Any Idears?Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amiryu Hosoi Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Sorry if I wasn't clear. I was refering to uploading a textfile that once uploaded becomes a notecard with the same file name. Just like we do now with textures. That way we don't need to create a new notecard, copy the complete content, copy the filename, paste the content, paste the file name, etc. Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonLeo Roelofs Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I don't understand why you can't just copy paste the text in a notecard and rename it to the correct name. However this importing is going to work I can not imagine it beeing faster or more easy than just copy a piece of text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amiryu Hosoi Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Sure we can copy and past. It will work like this: make sure you have a desktop folder and SL running running side by side: write the description file and save the file to your HD -> Rightclick the saved file and choose rename -> Copy the filename in memory -> Switch to SL, open your inventory and create a new notecard -> Paste the file name -> Go back to your text editor and copy the description -> Close the textfile -> Go back to SL and paste the description in the notecard -> Save the notecard. Now, emagine we have around 1000+ notecards to process? Wouldn't it be way easier to just import textfiles just like we do with textures? Go into SL and choose bulk import -> select all text files you need to import and ckick okay. Done! I can emagine people with 10 items online don't need text import, but ! do!

Ami It is a new revenue stream for LR too:smileywink: Personally I do the notecards in-world but mine are pretty standard and I edit an exsisting one [template] to fit the new products.

Amiryu Hosoi Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Argus, the revenue is only 10L per file so that is not that exiting. If it would save me all the dumb work I would be glad to pay 50L per uploaded text file. Ami Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could email them the text cards and they could do the SL work.:smileywink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
