text() and translate()
« on: Nov 27th, 2003, 7:05pm » |

At certain x,y,z coordinates using translate, I've noticed that if you place text, the text has the odd feature of stretching to infinite lengths; why is this?
And what are the constraints of translate and text (to filter the data)?
Ie:
translate(x,y,z);
text(char(((x+y+z)%(125-33))+33), x, y);
// usable range of ascii characters 33-125
Why are they all scaled and skewed and out of whack?

without looking at the actual code, i'm guessing that your z value is setting your text so that it's flying into the camera, and it's not getting properly clipped (the latter because of a incomplete part of the graphics engine).
see the note on coordinates:
