Group Notice Attachments won't open (mac and windows).

Summary

Attachments to group notices - be they NCs, objects or LMs do not open when clicked (This happens in Firestorm as well so it may be an LL problem not an Alchemy problem).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open group notices.
  2. Open a notice with an attachment.
  3. Click on the attachment

What is the current bug behavior?

Depending on attachment type:

  1. Objects will say they are saved to inventory, they are not.
  2. Landmarks sometimes open, sometimes don't (in my testing they seem to have a better hit rate than objects or NCs).
  3. Note Cards never open (at least in my testing) and do not save to inventory either.

There is a work around:

  1. If you open the Groups tab from the People window.
  2. Right click and "View Info" on the appropriate group.
  3. Open Notices, select the same notice
  4. Scroll down until the "Open Attachment" button is visible, click it and
  5. The attachment then behaves as expected.

What is the expected correct behavior?

  1. Objects should save to inventory (and open the inventory window, to the recent tab if possible).
  2. landmarks should open a places window.
  3. Note Cards should open in a window or at least save to inventory.
