A string, or array of strings containing the VRML object text.
Creates a VRML text object in an open VRML file.
A string, or array of strings containing the VRML object text.
Center
A 3-element array with coordinate position of the text object centered around designated coordinates [x, y, z]. FontSize
Specifies the point size of the font. (Default: 10)Left
If set, left-justify the text about the Center designated coordinates [x, y, z].
NOTE: The Left and Right keywords are mutually exclusive.
If set, right-justify the text about the Center designated coordinates [x, y, z]. Rotation
A 3-element array specifying rotation angles in degrees around x, y and z. (Default: orientation is horizontal, with text parallel to the x-y plane, reading from -x to +x)Transform
A 4-by-4 matrix containing the transformation to apply to the object. Applied after Center and Rotation.
AmbientColor
A 3-element array of RGB color with each element ranging between 0 and 255. If the value is scalar, then the color is interpreted as grayscale.DiffuseColor
A 3-element array of RGB color with each element ranging between 0 and 255. If the value is scalar, then the color is interpreted as grayscale.EmissiveColor
A 3-element array of RGB color with each element ranging between 0 and 255. If the value is scalar, then the color is interpreted as grayscale.Shininess
A scalar shininess factor, in the range of 0 to 255.SpecularColor
A 3-element array of RGB color with each element ranging between 0 and 255. If the value is scalar, then the color is interpreted as grayscale.Texture_Image
A texture image to apply to the object. The image is wrapped completely around the object. The texture image values and transparency values lie in the range of 0 to 255.There are four options:
Grayscale image(2, w, h)
Grayscale in (0, *, *) plus transparency in (1, *, *)(3, w, h)
True color image (red, green, blue)(4, w, h)
True color plus transparency in (3, *, *)
A scalar transparency factor, in the range of 0 to 255.
Serif
Serif font (the default).Sans
Sans-serif font.Typewriter
Monospaced font.
Bold
Boldface type.Italic
Italic type.
If the text parameter is an array of strings, each string is placed on a separate line in the VRML world. The lines of text objects are centered about the baseline position of the first element string, and the lines are separated based on the point size of the font used.
