TvMesh 3dText

[cybertrickle]

How do you change the size of 3d text in TVMesh
Also, is it possible to change the color of the text?

Thanks

you can resize with:
mesh3DText.ScaleMesh(sngScaleX,sngScaleY,sngScaleZ)
you can change color with:
mesh3DText.SetMaterial(intMaterial)'assuming you have created the material already

I am trying to reduce the size of some of my meshes.  I am trying to use:

house.ScaleMesh(20,20,20)

however I get an error :

Compile error:

Expected: =

Now I assume that to reduce the size of a mesh I need to use house.ScaleMesh(.5,.5,.5) or something to that effect.  But that doesn't give me any better results.

I have tried using house.ScaleMesh(sngLocX,sngLocY,sngLocZ)=.5 but then I get:

Compile error:

Expected: Function or variable
and the
.ScaleMesh(sngLocX,sngLocY,sngLocZ)= is highlighted.

What have I missed?  Am I using this correctly?  Is there a better way to resize meshes?

Sorry for so many questions but I am still working my way through all this.

Thanks

Simple VB error..... when you call a void-returning function (A.K.A. a Sub), you don't need to put paranthesis, in fact if you put any, VB calls for an error.

You have to do

Code:

object.ScaleMesh 20, 20, 20

Hope this helped!

Yes that worked perfectly.  Thank you.
