Buoyant Nametags

Nametags of underwater avis, as viewed above water, seem to be floating on top of the water, even if the avatars are deep below. Looking below water they snap back to normal.

I don’t consider this a flaw. Seems a desirable feature.

Thanks for the report Pazako!
It appears this behaviour changed in a previous release in order to prevent nametags being cut by the water surface.
Issue tracked: https://github.com/secondlife/viewer/issues/2542. We have no estimate when a fix may be implemented. Please see updates here or in future release notes.

I believe this is by design. When the camera is under water, the nametag shows above your head. When the camera is above water, the nametag shows floating on the water. It is hard in some cases to find people like this. Specificaly for some activities in SL, eg Rescue operations in the Blake Sea. It would be awesome if this can be put into the settings as an option or something?
