__TOC__
__TOC__
The Develop menu is a hidden home for the most geeky viewer features: debug displays, administrative functions, troubleshooting tests, workarounds, and [http://forums-archive.secondlife.com/120/24/1727/1.html hippos]. Many parts are useful to anyone. Some features are unfinished or only work in development environments. Proceed with caution, some of these can make your viewer act strangely.
To enable this menu, go to '''Me>Preferences''', Advanced tab, and check "Show Developer Menu".
