Maybe I'm just too tired to find it in the wiki... so I ask you guys... (what would I do without this forum?  Can I read out the Hovertext? Means - when I use llSetText("bla", <255,255,255>, 1.0); - is there a command to read what's in the hovertext? I tried llGetPrimitiveParams and object-details - but I couldn't find it... |

nope it's another one of those impossible to read prim attributes like particle sytems and a few others... you can set but not read =(

if you use llSetText("bla", <255,255,255>, 1.0); then you know what it says, it says "bla" you set it so you know what it says. its like using a listen in the same script as a say. ie like talking to yourself  you dont need to read it try it like this (define them as strings at top of script) floattext = "bla"; llSetText(floattext, <255,255,255>, 1.0); readhovertext = floattext; or just use floattext for what it reads!

what's the point behind a vector of <255,255,255>? Aren't the valid ranges (or ranges that matter), <0,0,0> through <1,1,1>? When I set <1,0,0> I get full red.

From: Lightwave Valkyrie then you know what it says, it says "bla" Yes, we humans can read what it says... but LSL scripts can't. |

Thanks guys... that's what I thought... The Problem is, that I set the text in one script and then set it again in another for displaying temp-stuff (like the progress of notecard-reading). Once the temp-stuff isn't needed anymore, it would've been handy if I just could set it to the original one... Not that big of a hassle though - I'll get around it... |

Not that big of a hassle though - I'll get around it... have the first script pass the current value to the second script, the second script can then set a temp one which it replaces with the known current, or do the whole thing vice versa and only have one script handle the changes (prefered)
