Talk:Region Environment Settings
Please for now restrict discussion to whether or not the feature works as described on this description page, and whether or not the workflow and UI are understandable and usable. Other enhancements, such as being able to exchange settings or support for other features like rain and snow are not in our current project scope, so please just save them for another time or place.

Suggestions
- In the Edit Day Cycle window, the line that reads '- Use the scrubber to preview your day cycle' is not user intuitive. It took me a while to figure out it meant to slide the yellow down arrow left and right to watch the sky change. Please consider something more constructive like 'Slide the arrow above the time line back and forth to preview your day cycle'. This will make it clear and easy to understand by those not part of the dev track who have NO idea what the secret code name for every piece of the screen is (scrubber to me is the script I use to clean prim params and scripting from an object in SL and something I was my dishes with in RL... scrubber, huh-wha?).

- In the edit day cycle window, I'd like to see a preview option like previous iterations (Stop, play, timescale). this would allow people minimise the edit day cycle window, and preview the cycle as it changes, without anything blocking the view.
The window itself also it quite large, perhaps rearranging the buttons and such, and moving the help lines "click on a tab..", "Click and drag...", etc to a help button, which could bring up a detailed Help browser window. This could be applied to the other edit windows also. --Uni Ninetails 16:59, 3 June 2011 (PDT)
Bugs
- World > Environment Editor > Environment Settings had Customize my environment selected when I started the Project Viewer for the first time. The wiki documentation says Use region settings should be the radio button that is selected by default.

- In windows typing /me in local chat prints out /me rather than substituting in my name. This is not an issue for mac.
