Rich Nykvist:

I regret that there were so many edits, it's the first time I've contributed content to this Wiki, and am still learning the formatting. Thanks for understanding. It would help if there were a generic page with the formatting already in place that users could edit -- there may be one somewhere, but I haven't found it yet. --Rich

llSetText("I am off", <0,0,0>,1.0);

The 1.0 is the alpha setting. 1.0 means fully opaque, and 0.0 would be completely transparent (invisible).

Example of how llSetText could be included in default code:
default
{
state_entry()
{
llSay(0, "Hello, Avatar!");
llSetText("Prize Box", <0,1,0>, 1.0);

}

touch_start(integer total_number)

The llSetText( ) function works with three arguments, the text you want to display, the color value in RGB and the alpha (transparency) value.

Here's an example:

llSetText("I am on", <1,1,1>,1.0);

What do the numbers mean? The <1,1,1> represents the values for red, green, and blue. <1,1,1>, means "white" and <0,0,0> means "black".

llSetText("I am off", <0,0,0>,1.0);

The 1.0 is the alpha setting. 1.0 means fully opaque, and 0.0 would be completely transparent (invisible).
