Prevention of wearing full folder of items.

EmmarieLee Resident
I've encountered the issue of accidentally wearing an entire folder of items and many others have told me the same issue. Is there a pop-up we can get (that we can't dismiss easily) to warn us that we're about to wear an entire folder full of items?
Some of us use folders instead of the outfits tab, but to prevent 100 items from being added (or more) would this be possible?

EmmarieLee Resident: Yay! I see some of these requests are coming through as something that can be implemented. It's nice to know LL is listening to us.

I would rather this be an option in the viewer to allow/disallow. I often use this to quickly add things to my avatar. Not once in Five years have I added an entire folder of something I didn't intend to add. You would be taking away a feature for a select few that this happens to.

Kathlen Onyx: she not asking for add or wear to be removed, just something to say you gonna add 50 or 100 plus items to your avatar at once as a warning.
Kathlen Onyx
Seren Whisperwind: Oh, I see. I read it wrong.

Kathlen Onyx: I apologize Sam for not being more clear, but yes, what Seren said is what I meant! ♥

If it isn't possible to stop the ability to wear a folder, how about a warning with cancel if there are more than 50 items in the folder.
Early in my second life I wore my entire clothing folder. It was quite a mess. If there had been some sort of warning that would have let me cancel I would not still have PTSD over it to this day. Lol.

Dictatorshop Resident: I feel you as today I added my whole HAIR folder to Seren, it has took me pretty much almost 7 hours get rid of it ALL. I do think some kind of warning is needed.

Dictatorshop Resident: My friend did this. Except her entire shoe folder once. It took her many hours to get rid of it. She still looks back...not so fondly on that moment, lol!
MissMachine Resident
Dictatorshop Resident: I feel this so much. I wore my entire shoe folder with over a decade worth of shoes in it. The attachements and HuDS covering my screen caused a huge mess and I couldn’t stop it. Took me over an hour to sort myself out again.

There is no way for the viewer to know if you intended to wear a full folder or not .. in some cases, adding an entire folder to your outfit, or wearing a folder that contains an entire set up avatar is exactly what's intended.
This is something I do routinely when setting up an outfit (which themselves are folders potentially linking to many individual items).
I don't see how you can have this and not break dressing up for others or break outfit folders in general. (Which is why we never added this to Catznip despite requests, there is no way to know what the user wanted to do, and if the viewer tries to guess, it will always guess wrong).

Crush Cutie: I agree, maybe like what was said above there could be something implemented that would be able to put a limit on it and ask if we wanted to cancel that.

This I 110% agree with because amount of times I done it, and it so slow as resetting to default avatar or saved outfit don't always work as solution.
