FlatIndicator

Creates a large 'billboard' (a sign that floats in the air and orients itself towards your camera). This is used to point out specific items of interest in the scene, or to display text information related to an asset.

Type: Text Bindable Default: HERE

The content of the text.

Because this is bindable, you can display any asset property here as well as any fixed value.

Type: Vector3 Default: 1,0,0

The distance away from the object that the flat indicator should appear. Note that these are specified world coordinates, relative to the object.

Type: Float Default: 0.5

The size of the flat indicator. As a rule, the indicator matches the size of the object its attached to. This number acts as a multiplier on that scale.

If you are placing an indicator on a very small item, you might choose a scale of 2 or 3 (double or triple the size of the object), while indicating an extremely large item may involve using a scale of 0.5 or 0.25.

Type: Colour Default: 0,1,0,1

The primary colour of the indicator.

Note that you should keep your TextColour in mind when making any changes to your indicator colour. Very dark colours should use white text (1,1,1,1) while very dark colours should use black text (0,0,0,0).

Type: Colour Default: 0,0,0,1

The colour of the text that appears on the indicator.

Note that you should keep your Colour in mind when making any changes to your indicator colour. Very dark colours should use white text (1,1,1,1) while very dark colours should use black text (0,0,0,1).

Type: Boolean Default: 1

Indicates if the indicator should stay stationary (0/false), or rotate to face the camera (1/true).

Type: Text Default: Large 2D

There are several styles of indicator available.

<flatindicator text="Push Here" offset="0,1,0" colour="0,0,1,1"/>

A blue indicator with the text 'Push Here' appears 1m above the asset.
