[sldev] Script Function llDetectedTouchUV(int index)

[Daniel]

Thanks a lot for your information. That's exactly what I am looking for.

I tried to comment the lines out where the UVCoord, STCoord, face, 
position, normal and binormal are added to "msg" variable to check, if 
that handleEvent function is called when I touch on a prim. But 
unfortunately nothing changed. What might be the reason for this? It 
seems, that clicking or touching on an object doesn't invoke this 
function. Might it be possible, that another event is involved where the 
client sends the information?

best regards
Daniel
