Description
Constant: integer PRIM_NAME = 27;The integer constant PRIM_NAME has the value 27
Used to get or set the prim's name.
llSetPrimitiveParams
llSetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_NAME, string name ]);| • string | name |
The same syntax applies to llSetLinkPrimitiveParams and llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast but with an additional prefixed link parameter in the function call.
There is no llSetLinkName function, using this flag this way fills that niche.
llGetPrimitiveParams
llGetPrimitiveParams([ PRIM_NAME ]);Returns the list [ string name ]
| • string | name |
The same syntax applies to llGetLinkPrimitiveParams, but with an additional prefixed link parameter in the function call.
If link refers to an avatar (seated avatars are assigned link numbers), the avatar's legacy name is returned.
