Notifications alert you to different kinds of interesting events. There are two notification icons at the bottom of the Viewer window:
Conversations
|
Instant Messages (IMs) are text chat received from other Residents and groups. Each distinct IM session also appears to the left of Conversations, indicated by a thumbnail of a Resident's profile or group's insignia. |
Notifications
|
All other notifications, such as an inventory delivery after you've bought an item, or when an object has been returned from a parcel to you. Some notifications have special thumbnails that appear to the left of the notifications icons: For example, a received object is shown as a cube. |
To prevent clutter, notifications appear briefly, then are hidden until you click Conversations or Notifications. This functions similarly to notification systems like the Windows Tray and Growl. Click a notification in the queue to view it in full. The notification count is shown layered over each icon.
Close Notification
|
Removes a conversation or notification from its respective queue. |
To close all notifications, right-click Conversations or Notifications and choose Close All.
