Question by dimitros89 · Mar 12, 2015 at 02:39 PM · gameobjecttextcubetextmesh3dtext

Insert 3d text to the front face of a cube GameObject

I have a cube which has a 3d text as a child.

I am using the below javascript to write on the 3d text:

 #pragma strict
 
 function Start () {
 }
 
 var countdown : int = 200;
 
 function Update()
 {
 GetComponent(TextMesh).text = countdown.ToString();   
 }
 
 }

I am trying to write/show the text to the front face(or very close) of the cube but i am failing. I tried almost every idea in this forum. Any ideas?

Do you have any errors in your console? Does text show up if you type it into the text-mesh text field? Do you have the script attached to the game-object with the text mesh or the cube above?

No errors. Text show up in the text-mesh. The script is attached to the text mesh. If i try to attach it to the gameobject it doesn't work.

"doesn't work"? How? Can you post a screenshot of your scene?
