When I use glPrint to display text on the screen and also have something else on the screen it won''t display the text. I''m putting it in the DrawGLScene function and I know I''m putting it in the right place on the screen and I changed the color but it still won''t show up. Any suggestions on how to get it to work?

First make sure that you are initiating it. Next, I would recommend that you switch to Ortho view, and then try positioning the font, as Ortho view is *MUCH* easier to position things in. Thats all I could think of.

just a thought, but why not put glOrtho in the print function with some matrix pushes and pops? Sure it''s not a good idea if you display a lot of text in seperate calls, but it''s so much simpler...

No, that''s gonna be too slow
I''d encourage a func that sets up the view
InitText()
and one
Init3D() to get back to parspective

then do

Init3D()
Draw

InitText()
DrawText

Makes good sense... I should do that. Thanks SKSlayer!
