confirmed this is a functionality which has been lost.
Known issue, thanks for reporting it, I'll link it internally.
MUCH appreciated that you reported it! I can confirm this also! It's a real nuisance! I hope it is fixed soon.
Confirmed, and really irritating. I use left-click on my nametag to mouse steer my avatar. It's not always possible to find a non-touch scripted area of the body to click on, and the nametag is a nice big target.
It's irritating, i like clicking peoples name to see thier profiles, and use nametags to drop inventory.
wasn't this broke and fixed in an old firstlook viewer, one of the 1st ones about a year ago? Neither avatar name bubble or attachments can be used now to open a profile. In the case of a full-body-covering (such as an animal or robot), that leaves no way to open the profile without opening search and manually typing their name in.
I don't think this meets the criteria for a "Critical" bug, since it's the loss of a minor feature, and not a crash or a loss of major function.
Why is this issue saying it is a duplicate of itself?!
Ah, rules be rules -- but there's an exception here! I moved this up to Critical because we are trying a new, agile triage methodology with WindLight. What does that mean? I will explain more here shortly:
» http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/User:Torley_Linden/Project_updates That being said, *thank you* for being conscientious of proper priority-setting, Kevin Susenko. I'll also resolve the Kevin: this is a critical feature, being able to select and drop on nametags is the only way to be sure that you're targeting who you think you are in a busy scene. There's been to many cases where people have dropped content on the wrong person trying to hit the actual avatar and hitting a transparent prim attachment on someone else instead.
Just an opinion here but, shouldn't this be a preference option in the General tab rather than a permanently enabled feature?
There are a number of us out here which actually prefer not having to click `around` name tags when trying to make selections. Please shift this function to a client side user-toggled feature to allow people to select if they want to be able to interact with name tags. Tasho, I suppose you can turn off the tags when they are in the way, right? I am not sure whether you are talking about ALT viewing or some other situation. But as an alternative to turn off the tags, I have incorpoated your case in my proposal VWR-3445, although I am not sure it would help you. But I think name tags are definitely a good example of things to be passed through there.
This issue is a critical security one for my island. Full body attachments of any sort are preventing selection to profile and slowing the process of ejecting or banning griefers.
With Xmas coming up it's ever so much more important that Items can be given ONLY to the person intended. Please make tags clickable again. Although I do like the idea that this could be a client selectable option, I would always have it enabled.
Thanx again for your reports and helping us to make progress! This bug is fixed in the newest WindLight version -- Second Life 1.18.5 (74965). Download link and more info here:
