Hello all.
Is there a way to render graphics text in a 3D plot so that it is hidden by surfaces in front of it? For example, this plot shows an "x" in a plot of Sin[xy]. Now, when I rotate it, the x shows through the plot when the surface is covering it.
g1 = Plot3D[Sin[x*y], {x, -1, 1}, {y, -1, 1}]
text = Graphics3D[Text[StyleForm["-x",
FontSize -> 18, FontWeight ->
"Heavy"], {-0.5, -0.5, -0.5}]];
Show[{g1, text}]
Thanks,
Chuck
