|p1_type=String

|p1d = text to display between the quotes

|p2d = color in RGB enclosed between <> signs, as in <0,0,0> = black, <1,1,1> = white.

|p3d = visibility, a number between 0 and 1.  0 is fully transparent (invisible), 1.0 is fully visible (opaque).
llSetText(String text, Vector color, Float alpha);

|func_desc=This function is used to set text to display over an object in SL.
|return_text
|spec=Displays text placed over object -- programmer specifies text, color and visibility/transparency.
|caveats=None known.
|examples=

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

<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). 

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)
     {
     llSay(0, "Touched.");
     }
}
