'''Here's a blow-by-blow list of what's changed, new, and some tips for the "Appearance Editor" in 2.1 — along with pictures and videos to help show you how it all works in action.''' The Appearance Editor has already seen numerous changes from [[Release_Notes/Second_Life_Release/2.00|2.0]] to [[Release_Notes/Second_Life_Release/2.1.0|2.1]], and we plan to continue improving it, so if you spot something outdated on this page, please update!

To get into the Appearance Editor, click the the '''My Appearance''' sidebar.
 
== Changes ==
 
* You can create '''New Clothes''' and '''New Body Parts''' from gear ("more options") menu.
* When in '''Edit Outfit''' mode (click the wrench and screwdriver icon), the inventory search box is hidden by default. To open it, click '''Add More''', then click the magnifying glass.
* '''Replace''' no longer embarrassingly leaves you naked! Context: replacing one outfit with another used to leave you partially naked if the new outfit didn't contain, say, pants. Now, when you choose to wear an outfit, the system doesn't remove items you were wearing unless the new outfit contains a replacement.
* Known design flaw: the {{win|Wearing}} tab only provides an '''Edit Outfit''' option when items are right-clicked. [https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-20107 See Erica Linden's explanation in VWR-20107.]
 
== New features ==
 
* '''Add More panel''' - Shown when in '''Edit Outfit''' mode. Quickly sort through your inventory for items you can wear, which you may prefer to using the '''My Inventory''' sidebar tab.
* '''Folder/list view''' - Click these buttons when in '''Edit Outfit''': {{red|image}
* '''Height in Meters/Feet''' - Shown when '''Editing Shape'''. (Quick way to get there is right-click your avatar and choose '''Edit My Shape'''.)
* '''Library avatars appear as outfits''' - {{red|Broken in 2.1.1? Can't right-click and wear Library outfits.}}
* '''Make changes without saving, and have them appear the next time you login''' - In case you want to undo the changes:
** Right-click your avatar and choose '''Edit My Outfit'''.
** In the lower-right of '''Edit Outfit''', click '''Undo Changes'''.
* '''Multi-wearables''' - ''Big one!'' - You can wear up to 5 layers of each clothing item type, as shown in this video:
*: {{KBvideo|aZOG6LDw5pg|320|253|type=youtube}}
** '''When wearing an item, choose either Add or Replace''' - When you're wearing the maximum of 5 layers, '''Add''' is disabled.
* '''Outfit hover options''' - Quickly remove an item from an outfit by hovering over it in '''Edit Outfit''' and click the circled X, or if applicable, click the edit (wrench and screwdriver) icon to make finer changes.
** '''Swappable layers''' - Hovering allow lets you move items towards the inside or outside of your outfit, such as when you're wearing more than one shirt.
* '''Privately preview outfit changes''' - Changes to an outfit only appear to others once you leave '''Edit Outfit''' mode. Better than a dressing room.
* '''Save over an existing outfit''' - You can either '''Save''' an outfit to replace the older version in seconds, or '''Save As''' to make a copy.
* '''Smart Filters''' - {{red|more explanation needed}}
* '''Smart Shop button''' - Select a clothing item layer, then click the shopping cart to look for items of that specific type on the [http://marketplace.secondlife.com Marketplace].
