Cool VL Viewer forum

The changes made to the Beacons and Highlights window is a big improvement over the default that Linden Lab's vanilla viewer uses, but last night I had a thought: Why not add in the ability to only beacon/highlight objects owned by a specific user? This would also greatly aid moderator abilities.

I considered it, but it would slow down tremendously the frame rate: beacons/highlights are called for each object, at each frame, and their current implementation already slows down things significantly when they are turned on. This is also why I ended up implementing the area search (at first, I tried to make for its absence with the improved beacons, but it doesn't quite make it in the end).
