class mrpt::opengl::CText3D

Overview

A 3D text (rendered with OpenGL primitives), with selectable font face and drawing style.

Use setString and setFont to change the text displayed by this object (can be multi-lined).

Text is drawn along the (+X,+Y) axes.

Default size of characters is “1.0 units”. Change it with the standard method CRenderizable::setScale() as with any other 3D object. The color can be also changed with standard methods in the base class CRenderizable.

This class is based on code from libcvd (BSD, http://www.edwardrosten.com/cvd/)

Methods

void setString(const std::string& s)

Sets the displayed string.

const std::string& getString() const

Returns the currently text associated to this object.

void setFont(const std::string& font)

Changes the font name, among accepted values: “sans”, “mono”, “serif”.

const std::string& getFont() const

Returns the text font

void setTextStyle(const mrpt::opengl::TOpenGLFontStyle text_style)

Change drawing style: FILL, OUTLINE, NICE.

mrpt::opengl::TOpenGLFontStyle getTextStyle() const

Gets the current drawing style.

virtual mrpt::math::TBoundingBoxf internalBoundingBoxLocal() const

Must be implemented by derived classes to provide the updated bounding box in the object local frame of coordinates.

This will be called only once after each time the derived class reports to notifyChange() that the object geometry changed.

getBoundingBox(), getBoundingBoxLocal(), getBoundingBoxLocalf()

virtual void toYAMLMap(mrpt::containers::yaml& propertiesMap) const

Used from Scene::asYAML().
