* Dancefloor: HAs with bgs, not flipped (+nude HAs

This is (was?) one of the cute little touches that makes Masq my favourite holiday. I was hoping that now that the event seems to be functioning normally/properly again, there might be time to fix it to work with the new wardrobe like it did before with the old one?

I've taken off my background for now because of this :/

Any update on if/when this can be fixed would be nice, since the event is almost over?
I'm sorry to bother you guys, but is there anything being done about this ballroom bug? The event is almost over and it's unfortunately very grating to have to constantly see backgrounds sticking out, unflipped HAs, and naked HAs on the side.
it's very unlikely that we will be implementing layer hiding or ha flipping into the new wardrobe, but you should see far less naked has from now on.
Why is that?
Maybe you should consider switching ballroom view to something neutral, I don't know, maybe twin portraits on the wall in the art gallery or something? As it is now, ballroom is not serving its original purpose. It was nice when our avatars looked as real guest at the ball, but from this year's event it is clear that majority of users do not want/care to use avatars without backdrop and the ballroom looks simply fake and cluttered. I'm clicking through only because of the possibility of duel event.
I thought it was too much of a coincidence to get so many dances with no naked HAs watching - thank you for being able to do at least that much. c:

Why is that?
I'd like to know too, . If that is the case, then I don't see much point in keep the ballroom as is because it looks very ugly now with all the backdrops and unflipped HAs. I guess at least we don't have naked HAs anymore so thanks for that.
I suspect because a lot of people use the foreground/backdrops as their HA and hide the human layer entirely. You'd be back to seeing naked HAs, but with random things all over them like cats or something.
The thing is, it's not like this year is the first time people used foregrounds and backdrops as their HA, and it hasn't been a problem as far as I know. And that's still no excuse as to why there's no flipping either way.
No layer hiding is understandable, but flipping the avatars can be done via CSS. Here's a flippy code I pulled off google and it works in my customcss (there's probably a simpler way to code it but I don't have time to look it up atm)
, , {
-moz-transform: scaleX(-1);
-o-transform: scaleX(-1);
-webkit-transform: scaleX(-1);
transform: scaleX(-1);
filter: FlipH;
-ms-filter: "FlipH";
}
edit: those backslashes on the last FlipH aren't supposed to be there, remove them if they cause a problem
Hello. I've fixed these issues for this year's Masquerade. Hopefully nothing goes wrong when it opens! Example of how the dancefloor should look this year, a screenshot from my dev server: https://i.imgur.com/dvOxmQ5.png
- Foreground, background, ground items, and Vanishing Cream will not show on the HA. (Vanishing Cream is actually on the Body layer so it's a special case.)
- The HA flipping has also been fixed. It's also using CSS, so if you have custom CSS that flips it, it should not cause any problems, but your custom CSS is also no longer necessary.
I'll close this thread after Masquerade opens and we can confirm it is fixed. If there are any questions, or any further problems related to this after Masquerade starts, you can ping me about it on this thread.
