Thanks Robert and Terry.
I've left off solving the problem for the moment and I switched to using an AutoTransform node for the same effect. Seems to be working well. BTW it might be nice if osgText had a provision for allowing screen size position/offsets. Eg you can currently use osgText::setPosition to set the texts position In model space but not one for screen space. In my case I was trying to have a label appear to the side of a 3d object in the scene. Seems like a common enough application. That's part of my reason for switching to autotransform. Perhaps I missed another better method (Billboard?).

My small feature cull is set to the default (2 pixels) and my text is definitely larger than 2 pixels (when it does show). When I disable small feature culling the text always shows correctly. I'm still not sure why this is happening but is it possible that it is using the world size of my drawables for culling rather than the actual screen size? Also, I'm not sure why this is an intermittent problem. (ie text doesn't show then I zoom in and it shows, then zoom back out and it still shows). Thoughts?

I searched around in the forum archives and didn't see any resolution to this issue nor did I find anything else similar. Did you ever find a solution to this problem? The way it manifests for me is that there is an osgText object in the visible scene but it doesn't show until I zoom the camera in on it. Then it appears and if I zoom the camera back out it sticks around. It should be showing the whole time. Thanks -Brad
