temporary 3DText

[M@rcello]

Hello to everyone, I need to build a function that show a 3d text for one second every time that the space bar is pressed.

EX:

def show():
    Text=viz.addText3D('Hello world', pos,color .....)
vizact.onkeydown(' ',show)

The 'Hello world' has to disappear after one second.

Thanks for your help!!

Hi Marcello,
You can use on vizact.onkeydown(' ',show) to call a function that displays the 3D Text at every one second.

request you to pls see to the artice on Timer Events and Fuctions in the documentation
Steps:

-start the timer on button event usign startTimer
Refer Link:
http://docs.worldviz.com/vizard/comm...starttimer.htm

-Timer will be activated for every one second using ontimer
Refer Link:
http://docs.worldviz.com/vizard/comm...ct/ontimer.htm

-Then last call kill timer after one seconds get over
Refer Link:
http://docs.worldviz.com/vizard/comm.../killtimer.htm

After kill timer then again listen for button event. and folow the steps as mentioned above.

hi and thanks for your interest.
The links you have sent me are not available anymore.

Anyway i know how to use the command vizact.ontimer, the problem is that i don't know how to remove the text after the first time it comes out!

Use startTimer and killTimer in co-ordination with ontimer

Removing the text is a simple call to remove if you don't need this Text instance again:

#display text
Text=viz.addText3D('Hello world', pos,color .....)

#remove text
Text.remove()

If you want to hide/show the same text multiple times us this:

#create/display text
Text=viz.addText3D('Hello world', pos,color .....)

#toggle visibility with these
Text.visible(viz.OFF)
Text.visible(viz.ON)

Hi M@rcello,

The script shows text for every one second when a spacebar is pressed.
Its a simple script.
Pls go through it.

Thank you very much Rajnishv, i didn't thought to the chance to create an indipendent function to disable the visibility of the Text 'a priori'.

Well done, and many thanks

Thanx Marcello:

Also try to use startTimer in co ordination with the vizact.ontimer() ot vizact.ontimer2() function to create your own function..
