Save Searches in Area Search
under review
Daisy Minuet
often needing to repeat same searches in "Area Search", a feature like "save search" or "auto-complete" (as it already exists in "Search") would be very useful for all.

Just a little note.. current FS Area search can affect the KFM (Keyframed Motion) objects!
When area search is started with a click of "Search" button with any filter by anyone, that can change the motion of the any objects moving or rotating with KFM owned by anyone in the region. It can change how far they has moved and which way they turned.
This is a video from my experiment I recorded today:
So when everyone can use this (with current implementation) many KFM-moving objects in-world would be affected. I think clicking on "Search" button can trigger the viewer to ask something time consuming to the simulators or something...
BTW, I too love the area search and I cannot live my second life without it!! So I am not saying LL viewer should not have this. I think everyone can benefit from this feature. But this is something to be noted, I thought.
If you like to test it yourself, please try the followinig
integer moving;
rotation original_rot;
default
{
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
moving = !moving;
if(moving)
{
llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_PHYSICS_SHAPE_TYPE, PRIM_PHYSICS_SHAPE_CONVEX]);
original_rot = llGetLocalRot();
rotation r = llEuler2Rot(<0, 0, 180> * DEG_TO_RAD);
// Rotate 180 twice forever
llSetKeyframedMotion([r, 2, r, 2], [KFM_DATA, KFM_ROTATION, KFM_MODE, KFM_LOOP]);
}
else
{
// Stop the rotation
llSetKeyframedMotion([], [KFM_COMMAND, KFM_CMD_STOP]);
llSetRot(original_rot);
}
}
}

Otoa Kiyori is this significantly different than my report? In particular, do the people using area search causing issues have edit rights on those objects?
Otoa Kiyori
Pazako Karu Oh this could be related underneath. But I don't know. What I saw was that if something triggered by FS area search (or any viewer does similar search) it can affect KFM rotating object's rotational movment.

I see in comments LL Viewer, which I never use, "has no Area Search"?? How can you live without it???
OK, NEW REQUEST: PLEASE ADD AREA SEARCH TO LL VIEWER!

Daisy Minuet I couldn't find an official post for adding this, so I created one 🙂

The LL viewer does not have area search so there is no way to add a save searches to it. So might be better to request something like area search as a whole to be made for the LL?
But yea, this is the wrong website to request features for Firestorm. FS request should be made on their Jira page https://jira.firestormviewer.org/

Crexon Resident I do not use "LL Viewer", FS Support people suggested I post feedback here on secondlife feedback. They are revieweing it. Thanks.

I think Area Search is a Firestorm Viewer only feature. You need to petition the Firrestorm team.
On the other hand, the official viewer really should have Area Search

Bavid Dailey just like the official viewer doesn’t have derender or draw distances greater than 512. I prefer the official viewer over Firestorm and other third party viewers. I have a wish list, though.

Marisa Starbrook how do you take pictures without derender? Just remove all the objects in your way, clean up the background, it's a nice feature!
Marisa Starbrook
Pazako Karu I’ll go into FS if I’m desperate to remove something from a picture. This is supposed to be a forum for the official viewer. There’s a lot of FS feedback to wade through. Every once in awhile I have to throw my 2 cents in.
