public class Text2D

extends Shape3D

A Text2D object is a representation of a string as a texture mapped rectangle. The texture for the rectangle shows the string as rendered in the specified color with a transparent background. The appearance of the characters is specified using the font indicated by the font name, size and style (see java.awt.Font). The approximate height of the rendered string will be the font size times the rectangle scale factor, which has a default value of 1/256. For example, a 12 point font will produce characters that are about 12/256 = 0.047 meters tall. The lower left corner of the rectangle is located at (0,0,0) with the height extending along the positive y-axis and the width extending along the positive x-axis.

Constructor Detail

Text2D

public Text2D(java.lang.String text,
              Color3f color,
              java.lang.String fontName,
              int fontSize,
              int fontStyle)

Creates a Shape3D object which holds a rectangle that is texture-mapped with an image that has the specified text written with the specified font parameters.

Parameters:

text - The string to be written into the texture map.

color - The color of the text string.

fontName - The name of the Java font to be used for the text string.

fontSize - The size of the Java font to be used.

fontStyle - The style of the Java font to be used.

Method Detail

setString
