Cool VL Viewer forum

Symptom:
Drag inventory from Inventory floater to in-world llAllowInventoryDrop() objects fails almost 100% of the time.
Most common result (35+ times at least) - the target item does not highlight in red when CTRL is held.
Dropping object will always rez on parcel if red glow does not appear.
Less common result (10 out of 50+) - item turns red, but drop still rezzes on parcel.
Least common result (3 out of 50+) - inventory drops to target object correctly.

Linden Viewer 1.23.4.123908 on XP - Inventory objects drop to target object with llAllowInventoryDrop() as expected.
Testing from work, this is all I could get done in time available.

I cannot reproduce this bug here (tested both under Linux and Windows with v1.23.4.0 CoolRelease 3). The transfer to the llAllowInventoryDrop() object always succeeds and the object is always highlighted in red when CTRL is kept pressed.

Wild guesses:

• You have RestrainedLife enabled and the @fartouch=n restriction is in force, and the llAllowInventoryDrop() object is at 1.5m or more from your avatar.
• You are trying to drop a no-transfer object.

In any case, none of the Cool SL Viewer patches touch this part of the viewer code (apart, indirectly, from the RestrainedLife patch, when @fartouch is enabled).

Ooooh RLV is a good guess. I will strip off all the attaches and try again.
If it is, I guess I can't gripe to my mistress

Sorry about the false report then!
It just did not occur to me she might have enabled that, and naturally you can't just yank stuff off without getting in trouble.

I will keep poking down this track, but I am guessing you are dead on.
