Gestures allow your avatar to perform a variety of animations, sounds, or other actions automatically as you chat. You can trigger gestures with pre-defined function keys, or make them automatically play when you say a specific word or phrase in conversation.
 
 
If you don't know how to perform a gesture you already have, you can easily find out.
 
 
# View your Inventory and open the '''Gestures''' folder.
# Right-click the appropriate gesture and choose '''Open'''.
# Look at the entry for '''Trigger'''. The gesture plays whenever it encounters this text in chat.
# Or, look at the '''Shortcut Key'''. You can press this key (or key combination) any time in or out of chat to perform this gesture.
 
 
==A note on gesture performance==
 
 
Second Life currently performs the ''first'' gesture it finds in chat. If you place a later gesture in the same chat line, it is not read as a gesture. You can often use this to your advantage; for example, if you're trying to tell someone how to bow: You type: Just type /bow You say: '''Just type''' <avatar bows> You type: /bow Just type /bow You say: '''Just type /bow''' <avatar bows>
