The Client Prop Edit window

all prop edit secrets revealed

 

This is your prop editing screen. 
You can highlight a prop and click "Wear" to dress yourself in it.

Clicking New will get you this screen where you can create a whole new prop.  You have the pencil to draw with, the box outline to select just a section to work with or move around, the eraser, and clicking those black lines will make the color draw thicker or thinner lines (same if you are erasing).

You can name your prop where it says NewProp once you are done.  Here is a list of what every feature does, click the "words" in that menu area and not the boxes for it to work. 

- Head will make the smiley in the background disappear. 

- Ghost will make it transparent. 

- Anim is used if there are multiple pieces to your prop that you want to animate together.  You have to click Anim on all the pieces.

- Bounce is part of Anim, when you dress in a prop with Bounce turned on, your animation will start playing backwards from the bounce prop. In other words it will Bounce back from from the Bounce prop to the first one in your animation. Only usefull with more then 3 prop pieces.

- Rare means its a prop that is YOURS and if its dropped in the room, no one can take it. 

 

If you highlight the avatar in your propbag and click Edit, this screen opens up for me to edit it. You can recolor it or change it anyway you want.

If you click save, the Macro screen opens asking where you want to save it to.

If you click Dupe, it will duplicate the highlighted prop. 
This is good if you are going to edit a prop. Use this feature as a backup in case you mess up so the original is intact.

If you highlight a prop and click Delete, it deletes the highlighted prop from your bag.

Naked strips you of the avatar you are wearing in palace so you are ready to put new clothes on and Close closes this window.

The outlined box just under the pencil is a very handy tools.  Lets say you have a sign that the kids use as ID tags. You have another one piece prop that represents you and you want to put your picture in <-------------this sign. 

Lets use this chick as an example.  First thing you do is fill the background with the background color of what your going to be using this in (ID tag above)
and then clicked the outline tool. Place your mouse at the top left corner, hold down the left mouse button and drag an outline around the chick of as much as you want to put into the ID tag.

With that chick highlighted,you click Copy from the Edit menu above.  Now you can close the chick pic.

Open your ID tag picture.

Click Paste from the Edit Menu at the top.

And your chick pic appears in the top left corner waiting to be drag to the right place on your tag.

You drag it onto your tag and center it where you want it.

Click the Pencil icon to make the outline go away, click OK and you are done with your new ID tag ready to wear.

Some final things that you won't find any documentation: If you open a prop in the edit menu like this briefcase again.   You can....

Hold down the Ctrl, Shift, H to flip the prop horizontally, or....

Hold down the Ctrl, Shift, V to flip the prop vertically.

Holding down the Ctrl key and placing your mouse anywhere within the pic or on the color tables, turns the cursor into an eyedropper allowing you to pick up any color you choose by clicking the left mouse button while over the color you want.

With that color chosen, you can hold down the Alt key and it turns the cursor into a fill bucket and will fill the background of this prop with the selected color you picked up with the eyedropper.

To change the background of your Edit window use the + and - button on your keyboards numberpad: the number buttons on the right side of your keyboard.

Thats it, all the Prop editor window secrets revealed, happy editing.
