ALL_SIDES - What do you use when you only want one side?

Total NOOB when it comes to scripting and I'm only just starting to make small changes to some free scripts to see how some very basic things work.

I have a script which cycles a slideshow on a prim.

At the moment, it uses the ALL_SIDES command/variable? and the images get displayed on all faces of the prim.

This is not great (as you see a narrow bit down the side and along to top) so I'd like the image to only show on the 1 face (front)

I understand I will have to experiment to find out which face it which.

But, what do I put in the place of ALL_SIDES so that only 1 face gets the texture applied to it (during the slideshow)

I don't know the other "Words" to use.

Thanks

It's an integer. ALL_SIDES = -1. Any value from 0 to 8 will do. (^_^)y

You can also determine what side you have selected (using SELECT TEXTURE) and then pressing CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-T.

Some information on the sides of prims. And to do more than one face you can do a call for each face.

You issue a command to set a texture (or color or whatever) for ALL_SIDES and then you issue to re-texture the one or two that are to be different. You can combine everything into a single command, like this ...

CODE

llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_COLOR,ALL_SIDES,<1,1,1>,1.0,PRIM_COLOR,0,<0,1,0>, 1.0,PRIM_TEXTURE, 2, "66864f3c-e095-d9c8-058d-d6575e6ed1b8", <2,8,0>, <.5,.5,0>, PI]);
