Hi,

I am attempting to create some osgText which has a very large size value. I noticed that if I keep the size parameter under 50 it looks fine. If I crank it up to say 500, the text looks fuzzy on the edges and just bad. I am using a TTF font. I am pretty new to using text so maybe one of you OSG wizards can shed some light onto this.

Code:

osg::ref_ptr<osgText::Text> text = new osgText::Text; text->setFont(m_pFont.get() ); text->setCharacterSize( size ); text->setAxisAlignment( osgText::TextBase::XY_PLANE ); text->setPosition( pos ); text->setText( content ); return text.release();

Thank you!

Cheers,
Don

Hi Don,

Add a call to set the font resolution used:


   text->setFontResolution(100,100);


Or try use Text3D as this polygonal based.


Robert.
