As in the title, I have an embedded font being used by a Flex Label that is overlaying a View3D. The label disappears after I call view.render(). I have other Labels with the same font that use glow effects and these render fine. It seems that only the normal labels using the font disappear once the View3D renders. If I change the font to a normal font, I do not get this problem, but I would like to use my embedded font. Anyone know what is going on?
Embedded font text in Flex label disappears when I call view.render()Software: Away3D 4.x |

I’ve been eyeing several 3d open source platforms for use in some data visualization projects. Because of the nature of the project the labeling functionality is one of the most important features for me. How to you find away3d to be in this regard? Any advice on what to read? I’m looking to do animations of growth (population, purchases) consisting of just edges and nodes, where most every node would need to be clearly labeled. Thx for any advice, Mark |

Spark:Label with custom fonts worked fine if my program ran in the browser, as I said in my previous post. It’s probably just a bug from adobe. Even without tutorials, making a scene and viewing it only takes a few lines view = new View3D() yourSprite.addChild(view) //assume view added to stage |
