wljs-graphics3d-threejs

Package

Represents an arbitrary text label placed as a Graphics3D object

Text["String", {0,0,0}]

Supports styling such as Style and Directive, i.e.

Graphics3D[{
	Sphere[],
	Text[Style["Hello World", FontSize->24], {0,2, 0}]
}]

Or using Directive

Graphics3D[{
  Directive[Red, FontSize->20], Text["Hey", {2,0}],
  Sphere[]
}]

Styling options

The following options can be provided to Style wrapper

• FontSize->Number - 10, 12, 14...
• FontFamily->String - this is basically an SVG attribute, please see here. If you have imported any font using CSS, you can also use it.

Dynamic updates

For both the position and text content dynamic updates are supported

txt = RandomWord[];
pos = {0,0, 1};

Graphics3D[{
	Red, Sphere[], Text[txt // Offload, pos // Offload]
}]

task = SetInterval[With[{},
	txt = RandomWord[];
	pos = RandomReal[{-1,1}, 3];
], 500];

SetTimeout[TaskRemove[task], 5000];

use TaskRemove[task]; to stop an animation
