Skinning How To/Remove the release keys button

Intro

The "Release Keys" button is part of panel_overlaybar.xml. This file controls the toolbar portions that aren't part of the main toolbar, such as the chat bar, media controls, voice controls, as well as the "Release Keys", "IM Received", "Set Not Busy", "Mouselook," and "Stand Up" buttons.

Removing Release Keys

Browse to your specific language folder in either \SecondLifeReleaseCandidate\skins\xui\ for the Release Candidate or \SecondLife\skins\xui\ for the latest release version.

Open panel_overlaybar.xml in a text/xml editor.

Scroll down about halfway. You'll see a row of <button> tags.

Find:

<button bottom="1" follows="left|bottom" font="SansSerif" halign="center" height="20"
 label="Release Keys" label_selected="Release Keys" left="229"
 name="Release Keys" scale_image="true"
 tool_tip="A script has taken control of your keys. Click here to release them."
 width="102" />

Delete that section.

Save and relog. The "Release Keys" button will now be gone.
