Hallo !
A simple question: how can I rotate a text in Gem?
I made my patch in portrait format and now I have to rotate everything, so that I can display it in horizontal format with the beamer ... and everything rotates fine, but not the text ...
thanks, LG Georg
i can't see why there should be a problem. could you send an example?
or: use the pivot function of your graphic card instead.

Hallo!

attached - but I just noticed, that this is a problem of [text2d], with [text3d] it is working ... but [text3d] has no anit-aliasing stuff ... mabe I such simply add this to [text3d] ...

right. there is a problem. neither [rotate] nor [rotateXYZ] work -
but [translate] does. very strange.
i have used only text3d or textextruded so far.
maybe that's what the helpfile to text2d is meaning with (Quote:)
[text2d] renders one line of a text with the current color, but
without(!) 3D-transformation
although a rotation is not really a 3d transformation...
so what about the pivot function of your graphics card, this might
solve it for you...
viel glück. max

yep - I think ...

hm - I think I will simply add antialiasing to text3d if it is possible ...
viel glück.
danke, LG Georg

no it's not that simple, since anti-aliasing is an option to the rasterizer.
[text2d] uses bitmapped/pixmapped fonts: the rasterizer is basically within the text2d-object, therefore you can anti-alias the font in there. otoh, a lot of opengl-manipulations (like rotate, translateZ) will not work because of this.
[text3d] converts the fonts into polygons, which can be manipulated like anything else. however, there is no point in doing "anti-aliasing" as long as you are in the vector-domain.
you have 2 options:
- enable anti-aliasing for the entire screen (FSAA)
- use [polygon_smooth] before [text3d] to enable a kind of
anti-aliasing for just that object.

okay, thanks, I understand now ...

hm, [polygon_smooth] has not really much effect ... will try FSAA ...
