FS#193 - "pure white" typo in "Insert Menu" bitmap - simple solution provided
In the folder “ready made scenes”, there is the file “B0 - Basic scene 11 - pure white background.txt”.
The text string to be rendered lacks the “e” in “pure”. Unfortunately, this makes the typo visible in the “Insert menu” preview image.
If the “e” is added, the text needs to be scaled a bit smaller (0.43 instead of 0.44) to fit inside the view.
The following code contains a possible “fix” (whatever).
It would be great if someone could fix this easy issue:
text { ttf "arial.ttf", "pure white background", 0.02, 0.0 // thickness, offset
texture{ pigment{ color rgb<1,0.6,0>*0.5 }
finish { phong 0.1 }
} // end of texture
scale<1,1.25,1>*0.43
translate<-2.10,-0.30,0.00 >
} // end of text object ---------------------------------------------
