How can you add text to the Forge Viewer with three.js?

问题

So, I am trying to add TextGeometry to the viewer with Three.js. I am wondering if it is possible to do this, and how you would go about doing it.

I have looked on the docs, but none of their solutions seem to be working since the Forge viewer uses R71, and they are far past that now with three.js. I have also tried downloading the R71 examples from Github, but I get an error saying that one of the fonts is not existent even when I have included them with script tags in the html.

So, are you able to add TextGeometry to the viewer? And if so, could someone give me an example of how to do this.

I have also considered layering a 2D canvas over the viewer, but because the scene is bigger than the viewer canvas, it makes for a weird setup that I am not technically sure of how to fix.

The goal of this is to be able to add text to the viewer via javascript, meaning the user will have no control over the textbox, the script will spawn it.

回答1:

It is rather straightforward to import features from later versions of Three.js even if the Viewer version is behind. I used the threejs-full-es6 package which allows to import only what's needed from the version of Three.js, just so you don't bloat your app with two versions of the lib and also prevents namespace collision. It is using r89 at the moment, another good news!

Here is a simple ES6 extension I created that wraps the TextGeometry creation:

import { Font, TextGeometry } from 'threejs-full-es6'
import FontJson from './helvetiker_bold.typeface.json'

export default class TestExtension
  extends Autodesk.Viewing.Extension {

  constructor (viewer, options) {

    super()

    this.viewer = viewer
  }

  load () {

    return true
  }

  unload () {

    return true
  }

  /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  // Adds a color material to the viewer
  //
  /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  createColorMaterial (color) {

    const material = new THREE.MeshPhongMaterial({
      specular: new THREE.Color(color),
      side: THREE.DoubleSide,
      reflectivity: 0.0,
      color
    })

    const materials = this.viewer.impl.getMaterials()

    materials.addMaterial(
      color.toString(),
      material,
      true)

    return material
  }

  /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  // Wraps TextGeometry object and adds a new mesh to  
  // the scene
  /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
  createText (params) {

    const geometry = new TextGeometry(params.text,
      Object.assign({}, {
        font: new Font(FontJson),
        params
      }))

    const material = this.createColorMaterial(
      params.color)

    const text = new THREE.Mesh(
      geometry , material)

    text.position.set(
      params.position.x,
      params.position.y,
      params.position.z)

    this.viewer.impl.scene.add(text)

    this.viewer.impl.sceneUpdated(true)
  }
}

Autodesk.Viewing.theExtensionManager.registerExtension(
  'Viewing.Extension.Test', TestExtension)

To use it, simply load the extension and invoke createText method:

import './Viewing.Extension.Test'

// ...

viewer.loadExtension('Viewing.Extension.Test').then((extension) => {

    extension.createText({
      position: {x: -150, y: 50, z: 0},
      bevelEnabled: true,
      curveSegments: 24,
      bevelThickness: 1,
      color: 0xFFA500,
      text: 'Forge!',
      bevelSize: 1,
      height: 1,
      size: 1
    })
})

Sweet! ;)
