hacking in text annotations?

[tachim]

Hey, I'd like to hack in support for rendering text annotations at a subset of the points in a quiver plot. Do you have any suggestions for how to go about this? I haven't seen anything remotely promising given the lack of support for custom glyphs etc.

Hi Tudor,

sounds like a good idea, you can check how text is being done here:

Look for everything related to THREEtext2d.
What did you have in mind, I see two options:

• separate widget, say Label/Text
• built in to the Scatter widget

Regards,

Maarten
