umm text? do you mean GUIText? 3dText? the names of Objects? text displays made with polys? text painted on some texture. please be a little more specific on what text you are talking about.

Hi, The text will indicate an object name. (For example: I'm developing a gear box assembly, In this assembly I need to indicate the component name)

then that would be either GUI text or 3dText, they already exist in unity, but you probably already know this. you just need to right a script that takes the objects name and applies it to the GUItext component.

Hi, Yes, Exactly similar to the image which you have given is required. Do you have any specific script for creating "cube, sphere" text in your model?

Yes, click the words "this script" in my post to get the exact script used...
