Caveats

The text will only be displayed if set by a script calling this function in the root prim. If text is set by a script in a child prim, it will only display after unlinking or relinking as the root. If either a child or root prim is selected individually and right-clicked, the default “Touch” text will display even if a script in the root has set custom text. The text property will always be that of the root prim unless right-clicking a prim under individual edit mode, in which case the default text always appears.
Like particles and other set text functions, all text set via llSetTouchText becomes a property of the prim, not the script. The text will remain if the script that set it is deactivated or removed.
You have no control over the face, size, or color of the displayed text.
Text is limited to 9 characters (UTF-8 character set may result in fewer than 9 displayed characters).
To restore the default “Touch” value, use an empty string for text.
To make it appear as if there is no text, use whitespace characters for text.
