A-frame.js long a-text value overflow issue












7















I'm working on a-frame based project. I've been struggling with the a-text length. Here is the minimal demo. As you can see the text is overflowing the parent panel. I want to add some sort of scroll on in the overflowing text. I was able to make a scroll like behavior with the help of this blog post, however the text remains visible outside the parent panel.

          The text value shouldn't dissapear outside the parent panel. The only thing the parent is doing here, is setting a relative transform (providing: position, rotation, and scale). It will not make invisible things outside of its bounds.






          The blog post describes hiding the text within a roof and a floor (Hiding the Article section). Since you have a photosphere, it would be a shame to throw in any covering elements (being the roof + ceiling).

          You can use the order of rendering.



          If we throw in an invisible plane, and tell it to render before the text, it will seem like only a partion is displayed.



          <a-entity text="long text"></a-entity>
          <a-plane position="0 -0.3 0.1" width="4" rotation="0 -90 0"
          material="transparent: true; opacity: 0; alphaTest: 0"></a-plane>


          Check it out in this fiddle.





          Here you have a fiddle with the scroll, if you scroll it a bit, you'll see the text showing back.
