returns a SG that does fit on the surface on another SG
Description
This procedure allows very convenient to set text string on surfaces of solid geometries.

Syntax
SGT=SGtext(SG,stext,ez,[sx,sy,ha])
Input Parameter
SG: | | Solid Geometry to mount the text |
stext: | | String to mount, lines with "\n" |
ez: | | Normal vector/Rotation of the union area to mount on [x y z w] |
sx: | | optional parameter for the size |
sy: | | size in y |
ha: | | horizontal alignment (if several lines) such as 'l' or 'r' |
Output Parameter
SGT: | | Solid geometry of the text string |
Examples
Create text with or without an existing solid:
SGtext(SGbox([30,20,1]),sprintf('TL:%s',datestrroman),[0 0 1],30);
SGtext([],sprintf('TL:%s',datestrroman),[0 -1 0],30);
SGtext([],sprintf('TL:%s',datestrroman),[0 -1 0 pi/6],10); rotation
