Well, I haven't worked with this area specifically, but from a quick
look through the code, I think what you want is an instance of the
LLHudText class (which is the type of the mText object).
In llviewerobject.cpp, there's this code:
// Setup object text
if (!mText)
{
mText = (LLHUDText
*)LLHUDObject::addHUDObject(LLHUDObject::LL_HUD_TEXT);
mText->setFont(LLFontGL::sSansSerif);
mText->setVertAlignment(LLHUDText::ALIGN_VERT_TOP);
mText->setMaxLines(-1);
mText->setSourceObject(this);
mText->setOnHUDAttachment(isHUDAttachment());
}
and then:
mText->setColor(LLColor4(coloru));
mText->setStringUTF8(temp_string);
Is that the hint you're looking for? See llhudtext.h/cpp for more.
