Summary
Function: vector llDetectedTouchNormal( integer index );| 340 | Function ID |
| 0.0 | Forced Delay |
| 10.0 | Energy |
Returns a vector that is the surface normal (perpendicular to the surface) where the touch event was triggered. Along with llDetectedTouchBinormal, this information can be used to find the tangent space at the touch location.
| • integer | index | – | Index of detection information |
index does not support negative indexes. For the touch category of events only. The prim that was touched may not be the prim receiving the event, use llDetectedLinkNumber to check for this; likewise you can use llDetectedTouchFace to determine which face was touched.
Caveats
- If index is out of bounds the script continues to execute without an error message.
- TOUCH_INVALID_VECTOR is returned when...
- The avatar's viewer does not support face touch detection.
- To check if face touch detection is supported check the return of llDetectedTouchFace.
- The touch has moved off the surface of the prim.
- The event triggered is not a touch event.
- The avatar's viewer does not support face touch detection.
Examples
Useful Snippets
<lsl>touch_start(integer total_number){
// rotates the prim, so the touched position points upwards llSetRot(llGetRot()*llRotBetween(llDetectedTouchNormal(0),<0,0,1>));
}</lsl>
