Description
Constant: integer PRIM_TEXT = 26;The integer constant PRIM_TEXT has the value 26
Used to get or set the object's floating text.
llSetPrimitiveParams
llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_TEXT, string text, vector color, float alpha ]);| • string | text | – | floating text to display | |
| • vector | color | – | color in RGB <R, G, B> (<0.0, 0.0, 0.0> = black, <1.0, 1.0, 1.0> = white) | |
| • float | alpha | – | from 0.0 (clear) to 1.0 (solid) (0.0 <= alpha <= 1.0) |
Syntax for: llSetPrimitiveParams, llSetLinkPrimitiveParams & llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast
llGetPrimitiveParams
llGetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_TEXT ]);Returns the list [ string text, vector color, float alpha ]
| • string | text | – | floating text displayed | |
| • vector | color | – | color in RGB <R, G, B> (<0.0, 0.0, 0.0> = black, <1.0, 1.0, 1.0> = white) | |
| • float | alpha | – | from 0.0 (clear) to 1.0 (solid) (0.0 <= alpha <= 1.0) |
Syntax for: llGetPrimitiveParams, llGetLinkPrimitiveParams
Caveats
- Do not rely on Floating Text as a storage medium; it is neither secure nor finalized.
- Floating text has been altered in past server updates, breaking existing content; future changes may occur.
- Even "invisible"[1] floating text is transmitted to the client.
- It can be viewed by anyone with a client that is capable of rendering text that is supposed to be invisible.
- The network packets that contain the text can be sniffed and the text read.
