Hi,

I need a VRML editor which will allow the user to load a VRML object
and label geometry nodes
correctly, which I understand uses the

" Geometry Text { }" tag for VRML labeling.

Could you suggest a good VRML editor.

best,
Cartik

I don't know, if i understand this right, but using something like

#VRML V2.0 utf8

Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material Material
{
}
}
geometry Box
{
}
geometry Text
{
string " whatever"
}
}

is illegal in VRML97.
The Text node is independend of other geometry nodes, not a extra tag.

It should be

#VRML V2.0 utf8

Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material Material
{
}
}
geometry Box
{
}
}

Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material Material
{
}
}
geometry Text
{
string " whatever"
}
}

or (in case of a simple comment):

#VRML V2.0 utf8

Shape
{
appearance Appearance
{
material Material
{
}
}
# whatever
geometry Box
{
}
}

so long
