change text tag fonts

Hey guys!

Is there any way, to control "text tag 3D" component's font output? I mean it would be nice to have a parameter that controls the text font before baking. I have found the string format component, but have no idea (and couldn't find any info on it) how exactly it works or what commands i should feed it.

help appreciated!

thanks

Yeah, I have found this solution, but i was hoping to find a "built-in" way of doing this.

Thanks anyway :)

edit: I have just tried out the component, and it gives a Null result. GH version: 0.9.0012

By the way,

Legacy scripts like Giulio's custom font bake , are experiencing some issues in the newest versions. That is why you are getting a Null result.

Check this discussion. although I thought this is fixed now. (maybe?>)

http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/hdt-utilities - this set of components includes an expanded 3d text tag which allows for vertical and horizontal justification as well as custom fonts. The justification features don't work in Rhino 4 but the font still should.

Than you very much!

It works excellently and is nice and clear to use!
