About

This skin is designed to give more choice, and hopefully improve the usability and promote usage of Second Life Viewer 2.

THIS IS A SPECIAL VERSION FOR VIEWER 2.1 BETA ONLY. The version for Viewer 2.0 - the main Linden Viewer - is StarLight 2.0.7 and can be found here where you will also find further information on StarLight.

Major Changes to the Standard Skin

  • Sidebar reduced in size and does not slide the chiclets/buttons along the bottom bar (note: this is not changable to crop the world view)
  • Better formatting of tabbed IM window (tabs larger and no icons in them)
  • Several UI components made semi-transparent
  • "About Land" Button added to Navigation Bar
  • Draw Distance slider added to Navigation Bar (between 32 and 512 metres)
  • Options added to the menu ('XStreet', 'Grid Status', 'My Uploads', 'My Useful Features')
  • "Inventory" Button added to bottom bar
  • Resize marker for bottom bar to make it more obvious
  • Camera control made smaller than the standard version
  • Minor tweaks to the skinning and usability (resizing columns, increasing glow, realigning text etc.)
  • The usual lighter Black & Orange look (with several changes to colours and widgets)

Also with this release the popular 'Full Length Sidebar' and 'Vertical IM Tabs' Extensions from Starlight 2.0.7 make a return.

Known Bugs and Issues

  • Only working fully with English language version of the interface
