[vtkusers] TEXT (HELP)!

[Giancarlo Amati]

Hello Mino,

you have to use the following classes:

vtkTextSource tx
	tx SetText "TESTO"

vtkPolyDataMapper mp
	mp SetInput [tx GetOutput]

vtkFollower act
	act SetMapper mp
	act SetCamera [CAMERA]

	act SetPosition x y z

in this way you create a Text that is a poly data and you can see the text 
from every point of view of the camera.

Bye
Giancarlo
