Papervision3D offers a set of easy-to-use classes to draw 3D vector shapes such as simple graphics and text. The classes were originally part of VectorVision, a separate project that was developed to create 3D vector text, but was integrated into Papervision3D.
3D vector graphics can be created similar to how the Flash drawing API works, with methods such as drawCircle() and lineTo(). The graphics, such as lines, circles, rectangles, and ellipses are drawn in 2D and can then be rotated to create a 3D illusion.
The 3D text classes allow you to create crisp looking multiline text with alignment, letter spacing, and line spacing. Although Papervision3D has only four built-in fonts, it is possible to create text with other fonts. An external tool has been discussed, which generates font classes, containing vector information about the font you want to use. These classes can easily be incorporated into your Papervision3D project.
You add interactivity to 3D text as well as other 3D vector...
