Hello, You would be able to do this quite easily by just generating the 2D image and texturing it onto a geometry of some kind, probably just a simple 4 point quad array.
As far as updating, you can either regenerate an image, and replace the first one, or look at using ImageComponent by reference, which will allow you to continually modify the same image. To place points on the graph in 3D, just draw the other shapes at the proper location on the X,Y plane to align with the underlying graph. -mike On Wed, 2003-10-29 at 12:09, Olivier Lefevre wrote: > Hi, > > I am new to 3D stuff and I would like a rough idea of whether it is > possible to embed (that is, to transform) a 2D graph so that it can > be rotated in 3D and look "correct".
