Remarks

OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAnnoText3 has some features of OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoText3 and also some of OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoText2.

For example, in the RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER mode the text is rendered using OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoText2, but the font size (see OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoFont) is interpreted in the current 3D units like OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoText3. As a result, the text is always screen aligned, but the size changes depending on distance from the camera. Text in this mode cannot be rotated.

The current annotation property (OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAnnoText3Property) determines the mode. The default is RENDER3D_PRINT_VECTOR (render like OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoText3).

If scaling is applied (e.g. OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoTransform) and the mode is RENDER2D_PRINT_RASTER, then the scale factor actually applied to the text is the minimum scale factor of the three axes (x, y, z).

Limitations:

Shape Antialiasing type is OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoShape.ShapeTypes.TEXT.

ACTION BEHAVIOR

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGLRenderAction Draws text based on the current font, profiles, transformation, drawing style, material, texture, complexity, and so on.

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoRayPickAction Performs a pick on the text. The string index and character position are available from the OIV.Inventor.Details.SoTextDetail.

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGetBoundingBoxAction Computes the bounding box that encloses the text.

OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoCallbackAction For non-stroke fonts,if any triangle callbacks are registered with the action, they will be invoked for each successive triangle used to approximate the text geometry.

For stroke fonts, if any line segment callbacks are registered with the action, they will be invoked for each successive line segment used to approximate the text geometry.
