I’d like to instance a random pick of text strings (from a collection) on a a mesh, while having each of the strings resized to fit the face on which they are instanced.
I’m vaguely assuming that String to Curves node’s text box width and height have to be proportioned on the underlying face, with the added complication that the strings are picked at random.
I’ve no clue how to go about it, or even if it’s possible, since the underlying mesh and the instance have no relation that I can see.
I could maybe separate the faces first, and then instance on the separated face, but there still would be the problem of the text box size, and the rotation of the text to the length of the face…
The only thing that I can’t manage to do is translating the instances marginally along the object’s normals, or even extrude them, to make the text more readable: it seems that the Z axis is lost somewhere.
