I used to utilize Thunderbird for many years, as it was just easier to manage multiple e-mail accounts this way, but after switching to Gmail and setting up proper two-way message forwarding I don't really need it anymore. A pinned tab in Firefox with a single Gmail Inbox / Google Calendar is just as good as a separate application, especially that Firefox is something that I almost never shut down, plus generates a smaller memory footprint at the end.

I use Firestorm and due to clicking past the new TOS by accident I'm unable to finish logging in.
It's connected to the erroneous ToS handler in the viewer. Until the next Firestorm release you may try to log in to the secondlife.com website and accept ToS there. The viewer should allow you to log in after that.

Yep this is exactly what I do, except I left click and hold on my avatar's back instead of nametag. I tend to have name tags off most of the time. It's the easiest method for one handed movement, IMO.
It's a Singularity viewer (Siana's) feature that was ported to Firestorm almost a decade ago. See:
https://jira.firestormviewer.org/browse/FIRE-13955
https://vcs.firestormviewer.org/phoenix-firestorm/changeset/e7466b0f06d62cf8f10e0fcf80c30928553b7ac7I don't think that SL viewer does allow movement like that, but I may be wrong.

If it's Firestorm, then you may also try to see if this is unchecked: Preferences -> User Interface -> Top Bars -> Show media controls in top menu.

Scripts themselves (without a bot) cannot open new IM windows. And that's a very good thing. You may want to try this, at least:
sendPrivMessage(key targetAvatar, string targetMsg) { if (llGetAgentSize(targetAvatar) != ZERO_VECTOR) { // User in region, use a function without delay and better visibility in chat llRegionSayTo(targetAvatar, 0, targetMsg); } else { // User not in region, use long-range function with 2 seconds delay llInstantMessage(targetAvatar, targetMsg); } }

Including that pesky right-click-select-freeze bug? That's LL's own creation and I guess their job to fix.
See https://jira.firestormviewer.org/browse/FIRE-31927 and especially https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-232466 - Firestorm didn't pick "the future Maint Nomayo" (or 6.6.3 Maintenance3 release) fix yet, so sadly, that "pesky bug" is present in the Firestorm 67470 Beta.

comment on if the Beta FS has all the performance improvements of the default SL viewer
Current Firestorm Beta (6.6.3.67470) is fully synced up with Lab's 6.6.2 codebase. That includes the code from:
https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/6.6.0.571939.html
https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/6.6.1.572458.html
https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/6.6.2.573358.htmlAnd to answer the original question...

No XML file change will help, as this is a viewer code functionality.

Try to use the "actions" dropdown on the left side of the profile as well as pressing CTRL + F in order to open the SL search engine.

Forgive my ignorance, but what's the difference between these?
First one is the script that is doing the hiding and showing, basically a crude recreation of one that you already have, while the second one is the switch.

See these.
key gOwnerKey; integer gChannel = 0; default { state_entry() { gOwnerKey = llGetOwner(); llListen(gChannel, "", NULL_KEY, ""); llSetMemoryLimit(llGetUsedMemory() + 5120); } listen(integer channel, string name, key id, string message) { if (llGetOwnerKey(id) == gOwnerKey) { if (message == "hide") { llSetLinkAlpha(LINK_SET, 0.0, ALL_SIDES); } else if (message == "show") { llSetLinkAlpha(LINK_SET, 1.0, ALL_SIDES); } } } on_rez(integer sp) { llResetScript(); } }
-
integer gCurrentState; key gOwnerKey; integer gChannel = 0; default { state_entry() { gOwnerKey = llGetOwner(); llSetMemoryLimit(llGetUsedMemory() + 1024); } touch_start(integer num_detected) { if (llDetectedKey(0) == gOwnerKey) { gCurrentState = !gCurrentState; if (gCurrentState) { llSay(gChannel, "show"); } else { llSay(gChannel, "hide"); } } } on_rez(integer sp) { llResetScript(); } }

What I did was add it to Quick Preferences at the bottom of the FS viewer, so I don't have to hunt it down
The associated debug setting name is "FSRenderParcelSelectionToMaxBuildHeight".
2 minutes ago, Marianne Little said:Firestorm used to show me the root prim outlined in yellow. I can't find that setting either.
In the very same preferences tab tick the "Enable highlighting of selected prims". Debug setting is "RenderHighlightSelections" in this case.

The features I requested would allow us to right click a folder and have the option to "Open this folder in a new window" and to have a "Search only this folder" option.
I believe that this commit in the Firestorm's repository may interest you.

Phil, the standardization of the default notecard editor font you are requesting is most probably not going to happen. As you've been poked about it above, this would need enforcement from the Lab's side or prodding TPVs' bug/suggestion reporting systems - remember, that not all of us read these forums. There also may be the case of a completely new TPV emerging that would not conform to your wishes.
That said, I do have a question. Let's say that for some reason all of the viewers out there have Deja Vu as the default font set for the notecards. You tailor your ASCII art, indentions or formatting and it all looks nice. Then comes an user that changes font in the viewer for this element, be it through preferences or XML files, or maybe for some reason the font is not loading for them. Your notecard is showing completely wrong for them.
What would you tell them? "Change to Deja Vu in order to show my notecard properly"? Because this would sound awfully similar to the "in order to view this website you must use Internet Explorer" or "in order to see my object inworld without issues you need to push your LOD to 4.0". In short, in my personal and private opinion which may be wrong, it's not the user who should tune his or her settings for the content, but content should be flexible enough to not error out on the user. Within some limits of course, but that's the general idea.
Therefore, I'd suggest using a texture if you want uniformity across viewers. Even if it means a HUD with it applied, in the middle of the screen.

For recording alone OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) with a proper configuration is good enough, for simple edits Avidemux should suffice as well.

From my useage, zero difference so far in performance
Disable VSync in preferences, Graphics -> Hardware Rendering tab, as its enabled by default, and try again.
Just remember, that in such a case your GPU may generate more frames than your screen is able to display. Therefore, a waste.

This causes massive slow down in rezzing since while it waits the CPU cannot perform any object data decoding, object LOD calculations, texture area/priority calculations/adjustments, texture fetching, texture decoding, GL texture creation, etc...
And that's the point, Henri.
Lower system usage = lower heat generation = lower power usage = fans being more silent = also a stable frame rate... which sometimes is more important than constant jumping from 60 to 90 and back - that can be noticeable and annoying. If the topic's creator is after this - they would be happy.

With LL's viewer (and likely BD), your only option is to use Vsync to limit the frame rate
Not really.
For NVIDIA cards you can just follow https://www.howtogeek.com/509097/how-to-set-a-maximum-frame-rate-in-nvidias-drivers/ - tested, works.
For AMD - not sure here, I never owned a thing with their logo, but I've heard something about MSI Afterburner settings.
For Intel - you probably won't need any frame rate limiter... -

I've never tried it, but if you have a subscription to Office 365, I think you could record the meeting using something like Audacity or OBS Studio and then use MS Word's Transcribe feature to upload and transcribe the meeting that way.
YouTube itself is adding transcription to the videos - all of them, where voice (English) is present. Yes, it is automatically generated and takes time to get created, but is more than sufficient and fully understandable. I am pretty sure that the linked Web User Group meeting will get one in a few hours as well.
