Hi, I have been attempting to use the overlay code from the j3d.org repository. After many failed attempts to get it to work I went back and did some testing on the demo code. I downloaded the binary (compiled) distribution and run the LabelDemo. This worked fine. I then tried recompiling just this single class (LabelDemo, using the .jar that came with the download in the classpath) and the label no longer appeared.
I tried this compilation using both jdk1.4 with j3d1.3 beta2 as well as jdk1.3.1_03 with j3d1.2.1_04 j3d (both opengl versions). I also tried running it under both versions. No matter what I have tried I cannot get the code to work if I compile it. The thing that I think is particularly strange is that the class I am compiling doesn't actually contain any of the overlay source, it merely creates a very simple scene with a LabelOverlay in it. At this stage I am completely stumped as to how to get the code to work. As it works with the precompiled version I think I must be doing something wrong rather than there being an error in the code. I did try compilling all the sources for the overlays myself using 1.4 and 1.3beta2 but still no label appeared. If anyone can evan give me an idea of where to look/what might be going wrong that would be greatly appreciated as I am completely stuck.
