Actually i am importing and exporting *.DXF files in my application. So, i took the height from that dxf file that is being imported. Problem with this code is that it can draw text but when you click on it it will turn into solid Bars and nothing text can be visible after clicking .....

I have been looking at the NeHe lesson and they seem to be in C++, sorry if im being blind. Also what is the best way to rotate text, i.e. having it writing at the angle or vertical. Thanks

Your First Link is not working .... But thanks for the Reply I want to ask one more thing that i am using this code ... where height is the Font height and startPoint_x and startPoint_y is the point where text is to be display CsGL.OpenGL.GDITextureFont myGDITextureFont; Font newFont; newFont = new System.Drawing.Font("Microsoft Sans Serif", (float)height); myGDITextureFont = new GDITextureFont(newFont, 'a', 'z'); GL.glTranslatef((float)startPoint_x, (float)startPoint_y, 0); myGDITextureFont.DrawString(text); and in this way text displayed but when i click on it it turns into solid bar .... What is the problem with this code ....
