Be gone!

The enclosed space rezzer finally worked, and here are the photos to show the steps.

Enclosed space shown in the left side of the office, the transparency allowing light to filter in, and marking off clear boundaries to the rest of the office. Initially made the rezzer, so that it could summon this sphere which would enclose the office area from outside people, to give a sense of privacy.
Within the enclosed space with a friend. The good thing about this enclosed space is that people on the outside cannot zoom in on objects placed on the table, because of the limits of secondlife, the avatars would be zooming up on the sphere itself, therefore preventing most of the information being place in the sphere.
Zooming out of the sphere a bit.
Looked at using a cylindrical shape for a enclosed space. It looked nice, but I preferred a circular shape, because the base was a sphere.

Sculpted shape. Quite liked how it was irregular, and also resembled a sphere in a way. The dent in the middle reminded me of a skylight of some sort, allowing more light to go through the top of the enclosed area.
Looking at how the office area shape interacted with the office.


The above 2 screenshots look at the office with and without the enclosed area. I thought that they fitted quite nicely with the office, and also these two were supposed to show me turning the enclosed space on and off using the commands: "shield" to bring up the sculpted shape, and "noshield" to remove it. However, the snapshots did not show the UI with the picture.
