Catznip R9.0 (April 2014)
Release notes are from the perspective of what's changed since R8.1 and is based on source commits. Change-sets during the development of a feature, related crash fixes and fixes from beta testing have been omitted (had we included those, this list would be well over twice as long).
Avatar picker
- added : ability to filter the friends tab in the avatar picker
- changed : [CATZ-116] Add usernames to avatar picker's Friends tab
Building
- added : drag-and-drop textures directly onto a prim face using local textures as the backing store (Windows only)
- added : drag-and-drop uploading of textures (Windows only)
- added : "Selection Options" floater to the build floater grouping all selection related viewer options
- added : "World / Options / Select Only Copiable Objects" option to the main viewer menu as well
- added : option to prevent turning towards a newly selected object
- controlled by 'RotateAtSelection'
- added : option to prevent the avatar's arm from pointing at a newly selected object
- controlled by 'SendPointAt'
- added : copy/paste of the different types of texture parameters
- Three possible scenarios (always on a single object):
- (1) copy all texture faces (which may or may not be identical) => pastes the texture data on matching selected faces
- (2) copy one texture face => pastes the texture data on all selected faces
- (3) copy several texture faces => pastes the texture data on matching selected faces
- added : pipette for the different types of texture parameters
Chat
- internal : restoration of IM/P2P/group chiclets + IM syswell chiclet + IM conversations floater
- this took all of the time :(
- added : "Chat sounds" floater to configure the different UI chat/offer related sounds
- added : "<name> is typing..." tentative message is shown in the chat history while the other party is typing
- added : show a context menu when right-clicking a conversation tab
- added : persist unread IMs to disk so they can be restored in case of a crash or log-off
- added : inplace search control for text editors
- current selection is used as the search 'phrase' when opening the inplace editor
- added : [CATZ-102] Ability to scroll the conversations floater tabs with the mouse wheel
- added : "Request Teleport" to the context menu of a resident link in chat
- added : "Chat Bar" option to the IM session chat bar and chat history context menus to toggle between expandable and single-line text editors
- added : split the "Teleport" option on the chiclet P2P context menu into "Offer Teleport" and "Request Teleport" and added an option for "Pay" as well</commit>
- added : option to control whether chat or group notice toasts will show above/below unfocused floaters (such as the mini-map)
- main setting is "NotificationToastFrontmost"
- "NotificationToastFrontmostFocus" further controls whether new notification toasts will appear above/below floaters that currently have focus (such as the conversations floater)
- added : "Conversations" button to the toolbar commands
- "Nearby Chat" will highlight when the nearby char floater is visible (whether docked or undocked) and toggle it when pressed
- "Conversations" will highlight when the conversations floater is visible and toggle it when pressed
- changed : 'ChicletBarAlignment' can be toggled at runtime and no longer requires a restart** changed : behaviour of arrow keys when focus is on the conversations container, nearby chat or IM conversation
- CHUI default: arrow keys never move unless "ArrowKeysAlwaysMove" is set to TRUE
- additionally: arrow keys move the avatar if focus is on a conversation floater and no text has been entered (legacy behaviour)
- added : "control panel" for P2P IM sessions which currently shows an avatar's profile picture and an excerpt of their profile information
- added : configurable sounds for teleport and inventory offers, script question dialogs, group notices and region restart events
- added : toolbar buttons for group conversations -> "View Information", "Show Chat History" and "View Notices"
- added : "History Search", "View Profile", "Offer/Request Teleport", "Chat History" and "Pay" toolbar buttons to the IM session floater
Inventory
- added : significant speed improvements when filtering inventory

- added : texture tooltip for inventory items
- added : "Copy Outfit List to Clipboard" is now available when right-clicking any outfit folders in your invenotry
- added : option to clear the current inventory filter rather than create a new inventory floater when the shown item is currently filtered

- changed : don't hide empty system folders by default ('DebugHideEmptySystemFolders' to FALSE)
Miscellaneous
- added : option to control how offered inventory is handled while marked as 'Do not Disturb'
- Pop up a chiclet as normal (default)
- Auto-accept the offer
- Auto-decline the offer
- added : double-clicking on the title bar of a floater will collapse it
- added : extra dictionaries for the spell checker (German, French, Italian and Polish)
- added : Xanthe's Windlight presets.</commit>
- changed : cycle between (unacknowledged) inventory offers or script floaters
- e.g. pay a gacha machine 5 times / buy 3 items from script vendors in a row
- every time you press "Keep" the next inventory offer will automatically pop-up saving you an extra click and ensuring you'll never miss one
- changed : restore the legacy behaviour of showing a texture preview at full resolution (if possible)
- if (one of) the texture preview's dimensions exceeds the window size the preview should be resized proportionally rather than "best fit"<

- offline IMs show SLT rather than local time
- convenant modify timestamp shown as SLT rather than local time
- group notice toasts shown as SLT rather than UTC time

- timezone indicator was added to help point out the difference to new Catznip users:
