Is there a way to keep edited items from highlighting?

[Rolig Loon]

Yes.  That is a standard option in Phoenix ( a check box on the top of the page in Edit) and it will be in the next release of Firestorm.  I agree, that highlight halo can be a real nuisance when you are working close in or with tiny prims. 

[Nyll Bergbahn]

Yes there is.

Build > Options > Untick Show Selection Outlines.

Yes.  That is a standard option in Phoenix ( a check box on the top of the page in Edit) and it will be in the next release of Firestorm.  I agree, that highlight halo can be a real nuisance when you are working close in or with tiny prims.

cool, i will try Firestorm, thank you

[Rolig Loon]

I think you'll like it, Charolotte. I know you like LL's V2 viewer. Firestorm is the new V2 codebase viewer on the TPV list, so you should find many of its features familiar. The beta version that's available right now is great, but is still missing some of the really nice building features (like the option to hide the selection halo) that are in Phoenix. We have been assured, though, that those will all be in the next release -- not very far off.

[Charolotte Caxton]

Thank you, Rolig, sounds promising.

Like Nyll and Rolig already said: Phoenix and Firestorm (latter officially in the next beta) will be able to do that. Viewer 2 however can literally do nothing. :smileytongue:

The option Nyll identified has been in Viewer 2 at least since version 2.7.2.
