Need Help with Text Positioning on Mesh from All Sides

Questions
1

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a project where I need to position a text on a mesh and then cut it out. I’ve managed to get the text to appear correctly from the front and top views, but I’m having trouble with the sides. When I position the text on the sides, it gets rotated by 90 degrees, and I want the text to remain upright.

Here’s an example playground to illustrate the issue: Example Playground.

Could someone please help me with the correct positioning of the text on the sides of the mesh so that it always looks upright?

Thank you!

One liner :see_no_evil:

text.lookAt(text.position.add(pickInfo.getNormal(true)))
