Comments

frankie August 16, 2012, at 12:54 PM: This has been added. The overlays can show camera name, as well as pan/tilt and can be turned on and off per viewport by right-clicking on the viewport and choosing the overlay under the "Overlays" menu.

The following variables can be set in your DEFINES block in user.cfg to override the following settings:

CAM_OVL_SHOW_CAMNAME      0
    CAM_OVL_SHOW_PANTILT      0
    CAM_OVL_FONT              arial-bold
    CAM_OVL_TEXT_FG           "00ff00"
    CAM_OVL_TEXT_BG           "000000"
    CAM_OVL_SCALE_X           0.5
    CAM_OVL_SCALE_Y           0.8

The values above are the defaults. the _SHOW_ variables adjust whether the overlays are on by default. The others are self explanatory.

A view with the camera name and pan/tilt overlays turned on

To be safe, I pulled it out since it is only helping in the rare case where there is no scene updates triggering a redraw. @] |
