To translate the local vernacular, to "shout" someone a beer in New Zealand means it is at their expense, meaning Garry's in this case. Garry drinks Waikato Draught beer. The official company story on that stuff is here <http://info.lion.co.nz/> , but anyone travelling to collect on his offer would do well to research his/her options here <http://www.realbeer.co.nz/> .

I take them into a 3D application (it doesn't support labelling)and they draw fine parallel to the ground. The issue is when the viewpoint is low to the ground they are difficult to read. What I want to do is rotate them 90 degrees on an axis that runs through the name (feature) so they become perpendicular to the ground ... therefore making it easy to read them at low to the ground viewing angles. It is similar to what the ROTATOR transformer does (but ROTATOR does it in the Z axis). Would appreciate any thoughts no matter how wild or wonderful. Will shout the people with successful ideas a beer (but they will have to come down to New Zealand to collect). :-) Regards Garry
