I agree that their current location is an issue. (1) At the same time, if parcel owners got more control, I'd need to use sky settings controls much less. Finding a decent / good lighting setting for any place would be easier and quicker; and better, because good content builders would also choose the appropriate light settings. So I see two separate issues here: 1. the UI one is about usability - it looks like an easy fix, that may be solved the same way as 'Gestures', 'Camera' controls got implented in the bottom bar (e.g., you can hide them); 2. the parcel/estate owner controls, that I see as a needed sort of 'content experience' improvement. (1) as a workaround, here's an easy XML patch for those who often tweak sky settings - as said, it's a workaround, not a solution. https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Opensource_Obscure/Panel_Navigation_Bar opensource obscure _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/OpenSource-Dev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
