[osg-users] osgText::Text background color

[Percy Camilo Triveño Aucahuasi]

Maybe, You should try to use another font, for instance you can use the
fonts of your system:
/usr/share/fonts
Here you have a nice fonts:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dustin
A example:

osgText::Text *text = new osgText::Text();
text->setFont("/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/VeraMono.ttf");

I hope this help you.
