Displaying whole Billboard of an IBillboardTextSceneNode

Post by KungFuLu »

Hi guys,

as the title says, I'm looking for a method to show the whole billboard of an IBillboardTextSceneNode and not only the text.
I tried to make a normal IBillboardSceneNode and place it at the position of the textnode, but then both are overlapping. And if I put a little higher, then the text isn't centered anymore when you look at it from an lower angle.
I also tried to set the material to solid, but it didn't change anything.

I hope there is a solution, else I must modify the IBillboardSceneNode myself.

Thank you in advacne,
-Lu

Sorry for the double post, but I found the problem. I had another node going through the billboard, so it seemed like the billboard and the text billboard would overlap, but they actually don't.
I'm sorry for this useless post.
