LlDetectedTouchST

From OSgrid Wiki

Function: vector llDetectedTouchST( integer index );

Returns a vector that is the surface coordinates for where the prim was touched. The x & y vector positions contain the horizontal (s) & vertical (t) face coordinates respectively (< s, t, 0.0>). Each component is in the interval [0.0, 1.0].

TOUCH_INVALID_TEXCOORD is returned when the surface coordinates cannot be determined. See Caveats for further details. • integer index – Index of detection information

index does not support negative indexes.
For the touch category of events only. The prim that was touched may not be the prim receiving the event, use llDetectedLinkNumber to check for this; likewise you can use llDetectedTouchFace to determine which face was touched.

Caveats
TOUCH_INVALID_TEXCOORD is returned when...

• The avatar's viewer does not support face touch detection.
-• To check if face touch detection is supported check the return of llDetectedTouchFace.
• The touch has moved off the surface of the prim.
• The touch happened too close to the edge of the face to determine a location.
• The triggering event is not a touch event.

Examples

<source lang="lsl">

default {

   touch_start(integer num_detected) {
       integer i = 0;
       for(; i < num_detected; ++i ) {
           vector touchedpos = llDetectedTouchST(i);      

           if (llDetectedTouchFace(i) == -1) {
               llWhisper(0, "Sorry, your viewer doesn't support touched faces.");
           }
           else if ( touchedpos == TOUCH_INVALID_TEXCOORD ) {
               llWhisper(0, "Sorry, the surface touch position could not be determined.");
           }
           else {
               llWhisper(0, (string) touchedpos);
           }
       } // while ...
   } // touch_start

} </source>


<source lang="lsl">

vector touchedLoc;

default {

//Draws a cross-hair at the detected Location on the detected face.

   touch(integer num_detected) {
       integer i;
       for (i = 0; i < num_detected; i++) {
           touchedLoc = llDetectedTouchST(i); //What location has been touched?
           llSetPrimitiveParams([PRIM_TEXTURE, llDetectedTouchFace(i), "5ac7995c-4c24-8b60-ae61-6a837619dc75",
                         <1.0,1.0,0.0>, touchedLoc, 180*DEG_TO_RAD]); //Set the Texture Location at the touched location
       }
