Hello.

I have the code shown below, it lets text scroll vom right to left, like a newsticker. 

I would now like the letters of the text to be displayed in outlines only, with no fill. How would be the easiest way to do that?

Kind regards

-------------

// An array of news headlines

String[] headlines = {

  "hello world.", 

  };

PFont f;  // Global font variable

float x;  // horizontal location of headline

int index = 0;

void setup() {

  size(400,200);

  f = createFont("Arial",70,true);  

  // Initialize headline offscreen to the right 

  x = width; 

}

void draw() {

  background(255);

  fill(0);

  // Display headline at x  location

  textFont(f,16);        

  textAlign(LEFT);

  text(headlines[index],x,180); 

  // Decrement x

  x = x - 3;

  // If x is less than the negative width, 

  // then it is off the screen

  float w = textWidth(headlines[index]);

  if (x < -w) {

    x = width; 

    index = (index + 1) % headlines.length;

  }

}

i want to add two things two the code below and need some help.

1. because of what the sketch will be used for later, i need to use p3d as a renderer. when i use it, no text is displayed. can somebody tell me why and what i need to change in the code?

2. i want to create only the outlines of the text, so that there is no fill in the text. i have seen the basic geomerative-library examples doing that, but i don't know how to put it in the code.. any ideas? or is there maybe another way than using geomerative?

thanks for any suggestions
