This won't help you today, but an REU student -- Renford Alexander -- is working fulltime right now on Three.js-based 3d graphics rendering for https://cloud.sagemath.com. He showed me some demos yesterday of drawing text in 3d, the looked pretty useful. In particular, he draws arbitrary text on a 2d html5 canvas, then puts the canvas element in the 3d scenes as a "sprite". This functionality should come to https://cloud.sagemath.com within a month, hopefully. -- William > > Thanks. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "sage-support" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to sage-support+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > > -- William Stein Professor of Mathematics University of Washington http://wstein.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
