Let's say I'm an object that's going to be attached, like a pair of spectacles.

OK, I know how to tell what point I'm attached to when I'm attached with llGetAttached().

How do I find out what attachment point I'll *be* attached to when someone selects "wear"?

How do I find out or change the offset and rotation that the attachment is going to be set to?

When someone chooses 'Wear', it'll be put on the last place it was attached to, with the last set offset and rotation.

Right, but how do you find that out or change it from a script?

Doesn't that only work while it's attached? When it's rezzed in-world it always seems to be the same way up, and of course the position is wherever it was rezzed to.

You can't find out which attach point it will be using.

And position/offset?

I think this is a "no soup" situation Argent.
