Marcin,
I suppose you want to move and rotate your 3d objects
while the text should remain in the plane of the screen.
If so, take a look at the java3d demo files where you
can find OrientedShape3D/OrientedTest.java. Just take
out the portion at // create 3D text:
Appearance apText = new Appearance();
Material m = new Material();
m.setLightingEnable(true);
apText.setMaterial(m);
// create 3D text
Font3D f3d = new Font3D(new Font(fontName, Font.PLAIN, 2),
new FontExtrusion());
Text3D txt = new Text3D(f3d, textString,
new Point3f( -sl/2.0f, 3.0f, 0.0f));
OrientedShape3D textShape = new OrientedShape3D();
textShape.setGeometry(txt);
textShape.setAppearance(apText);
textShape.setAlignmentAxis( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);
objScale.addChild( textShape );

Subject: [JAVA3D] 2D
how can i mix 2d and 3d modes in a single BranchGroup ?
i'd like to add Text2D to 3d scene displaying actual number of
objects in Canvas3D's lower-left point.
i've tried to use ortho(..) transformation, but with no luck :(
thanks for any help
Marcin
