goText Package

This is a text package that uses line primitives to render text. Any rendered text is first transformed with Graphico's model view and projection matrices.

To create text located relative to a three dimensional coordinate but always drawn as flat (2D) relative to the screen, use the constructor 

    GoText(xPosition, yPosition, zPosition,
           xPath, yPath,           /* 2D horizontal path vector */
           xScale, yScale,
           alignment,
           font,
           text)

To create text located relative to a three dimensional coordinate and drawn along a three dimensional path specified with horizontal and vertical path vectors, use the constructor 

    GoText(xPosition, yPosition, zPosition,
           xPath, yPath, zPath,    /* 3D horizontal path vector */
           xUp, yUp, zUp,          /* 3D vertical path vector   */
           xScale, yScale,
           alignment,
           font,
           text)

Currently the fonts available to render the text include the Hershey font set. Hershey fonts are creates with GoHershey(String font).
