Changing Default 'Pay Resident' Amounts when Right Clicking on an Avatar?

[DJay Skydancer]

Hi Everyone,

Is there a way to change the default 'Pay Resident' amounts when right clicking on an avatar and clicking 'Pay' - I use Firestorm. See Gyazo image. https://gyazo.com/02cb7f22d9ed3717bdfa2c4e23b7d7cd

Thank you in advance

No. Not as far as I'm aware. However, the default amounts have never been useful to me, and a "bespoke" amount nearly always has be specified. Things like my rent contributions never align with those defaults

If you want to change the options you have when paying others, you can edit your viewer's configuration files directly.

Since you have Firestorm (though this should apply to most viewers), go to your viewer's install directory, then skins/default/xui/en (or whatever language you use) and open the floater_pay.xml file in any text editor.

These files may look complicated first, but you only need to edit these two spots:

label="L$1"
name="fastpay 1"

The label is the text that's displayed as the button text.

The name belongs to what the button does when you click it. It uses an action called fastpay, and the amount to be paid is 1 linden.

So if you change this to...

label="VIP"
name="fastpay 999"

You'll change one of the buttons (in this case, the first one) to a button which pays 999 linden:

 

If you look at the rest of the file, you'll notice that it has four <button> elements, <text> element, <line_editor> element, and so on. This file basically defines the entire structure/functionality of the pay window, meaning you can even add or remove those buttons if you feel like it. There's a separate floater_pay_object.xml file if you want to change those as well.

Thank you so much. It works a treat for payments to someone else.
