Vertical? specifies whether the text runs vertically. The default is FALSE.
Wrap Distance specifies the distance to wrap the text in coordinate units.
Color specifies the color of the object in RGBA format. Color accepts a cluster of numeric values 0 through 1, where 0 represents the absence of the red, green, or blue color and 1 represents a full saturation of the color. The alpha value indicates the transparency of the red, green, and blue colors.
Red specifies the red value. The default is 1.
Green specifies the green value. The default is 0.
Blue specifies the blue value. The default is 0.
Alpha specifies the level of opacity of the RGB color when you apply the color to a 3D object. Alpha must be a value between 0 and 1. The default is 1.
Text specifies the text of the object.
Font Name specifies the font to use for the text. If you misspell the font name or specify a font that is not installed on the computer, the operating system selects a font.
Character Size specifies the height of the text characters in coordinate units. For example, set character size to 1 to create text characters equal in height to a geometric object with a height of 1. The default is 0.5.
error in describes error conditions that occur before this node runs. This input provides standard error in functionality.
New Text Refnum returns a reference to the text, including the font and color you specify.
error out contains error information. This output provides standard error out functionality.
