Hey guys,
I have created a program that creates 3d charts. It creates bars of different length and has hash marks that go up the side for comparison. The whole thing can be rotated, zoom in or out and change the camera angle. What I need now is the legend that will set the value of each mark ($0, $10K, $20K, $30K...). What I think I need to do is to create list in text form and then save that to some type of image format and use that as a texture for another mesh that I'll put beside the chart. So I guess I'm looking for two things. 1.) Is this how you would accomplish this goal...and 2.) How can I create a vertical list of text that I can then save as an image file. I'd really prefer to keep the image file virtual as I don't really need the image for anything other than the chart but if I need to save it to my hard drive I can. I feel as though there should be something out there on this but I can't find it. If you know of a good resource that would also be helpful. I need this in VB.net please!
Thanks
