[osg-users] Write osgText to an FLT file

[Robert Osfield]

HI Steven,

One thing you could try is to utilize the
osg::Drawable::accept(PrimitiveFunctor&) functionality to extra
primitive data from the Text drawable.  Possibly the
osg::TriangleIndexFunctot might be the most straight forward way.
Have a look through the OSG source code to see examples of
TriangleIndexFunctor, TriangleFunctor and PrimitiveFunctor in action.

Robert.
