A simple Tool to let your active group changed automatically according to the parcel you're on.

* This tool uses RLV commands. If your viewer doesn't support RLV(a), e.g. the original LL Viewer, or it is not activated in your viewer, it will NOT work.
Firestorm: You will find the RLVa option in Preferences -> Firestorm -> Extras
* It uses the UUID of groups NOT the names. To find the UUID of a group, open the group profile and find the field "Group Key". Copy and paste it.

* There is a threshold of 1 minute between group changes via RLV commands. So if you hop very fast between regions the change will not be at once.
But the tool will keep trying and the change will be done once possible.

Just add the tool.
It is a HUD (default attachment point is bottom right) and the HUD itself is modify.
So you can resize it and change its position via the edit menu (right-click the HUD and choose edit).

On first attach the tool will ask for your default group (the group you use most of the time, the group you want to have activated if no other group is needed).
Fill in the UUID of this group in the pop-up. If you missed the pop-up touch the HUD, it will ask you again to set up your default group first.
Once set the tool is ready to go...

*** How to use ***

After a TP to a new region it will automatically present you a pop-up and ask you what you want to do.
It will provide the following options:

* YES: will open the dialog box to enter the group UUID for this parcel
* Default: Easy option to set the default group for this parcel
* Not now: Menu will vanish but ask again the next time you enter the same parcel
* No, ignore: Menu will vanish and not ask again the next time you enter the same parcel

If you change your mind - touch the tool.

If a group is set up for the parcel the tool will automatically change your active group accordingly.

If touched the tool will provide you these options:

• Delete: the entry for this parcel
• Add/change: the entry for this parcel
• Default: Sets your default group for this parcel (will also change the database accordingly)
• Override: to your default group temporary (will not change the database)
• Turn OFF: the group changer
• List: all entries in nearby chat - here you can also delete/change entries AND delete the complete database

*** Specials ***

A long press on the HUD starts a group change to NONE and back to the currently active group - so a group reset.
Due to the one minute threshold, the process can take up to two minutes.

To change your default group:
Touch the HUD and choose Turn OFF
Touch again and choose the Reset option
Touch again and Turn ON

Have fun in SL!

Cheers,
