ds2vtb
Draw text that always faces the camera - vector input
Prototype
void ds2vtb(XYZ iP, XYZ ioff, char *text, int scaletext);
Description
Draw text at position iP that faces the camera with vector inputs. Use this function only from within a dynamic callback. The components of iOff are in character units along Right and Up vectors - use this to displace labels in screen coordinates. If scaletext is true (non-zero), then text further from the camera will be made larger so that labels are equally legible for all distances.
NOTE: this function uses the S2PLOT attributes for character height (size) and colour. The z component of ioff is ignored.
