Scaling

[mjabon]

Great, that fixed the text. I'm having problems with scaling the text though. I use text.setFont. I have tried values ranging anywhere from .3 to 36 and in all cases the text is gone...any ideas?

for x in range (-10, 10):
	for y in range (-10,10):
		       text = viz.addText('(' +str(x) + ', ' + str(y) + ', -1)')
			text.alignment(viz.TEXT_CENTER_CENTER)
			text.translate(x,y,-1)
			text.fontSize(6)

Also, I followed all the directions in the 3dmax tutorial about scaling and my 1m square box is still spanning from -5 to +5 in my world. Ideas?

Hi,

You should only use the fontSize command when the text is being displayed on the orthographic HUD. Otherwise, just use the node.scale() command to change the size of the text.

I can't tell what is going on with your model without looking at it. If you want me to take a look then email the .max file to me at lashkari@worldviz.com.
